I think both cases (EU courts/WTO) are relevant but my knowledge of appeals to EU or WTO is shaky, so I cannot comment on this. Maybe someone else can help us out?

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) is the highest court in the EU for matters covered by EU laws - if there is a relevant law then presumably the case could get appealed all the way up to the ECJ.

Not sure about the WTO - wouldn't South Korea have to take on Samsung's case there against Germany?

That is correct, only disputes between countries are settled to WTO law. German courts and the ECJ do not apply WTO law.
