Not exactly so.
Only early pieces from 1950s were made in Soviet Union. Those are of high quality, made from silver and are quite expensive.
Some good quality awards were manufactured in Checho-Slovakia as well.
Majority of Korean awards were made locally and they look crappy compared to early speciments. Cheaper materilas were used, such as aluminum and copper alloys. Also instead of hot glass-like enamel Koreans applied paint or cold enamel.
