try asking if the shop have display set for sale. unlike TV, fridge never gets switched on while in store. can get pretty good discount.
Did mine with SengHeng. Bought a fridge with ~1K less than normal price. Warranty all the same.

rule of thumb: never buy single door one. cleaning and defrosting will kill you. get the cheapest 2 door. any brand will do. go big shop like sengheng and harvey and look for dented units. they work fine.
this weekend got starling mall expo and got some factory outlet sales.. try there too.

fridge is suppose to be the longest lasting item at home. even longer than your tv. so if possible, spend a bit more on the largest size you can afford. dont buy fancy inverter/4 door/door in door etc. just get the basics right.
personally i would skip koreans though...

frost problem... if defrost will take few days. fastest is use hair dryer to blow it. when it drips down it will collect at bottom pan. if overflow will wet your floor.
and finally, the defrost button always rosak after a while....
