If the bearing is carrying a reputed brand name then theres good chance they will be of high standard. 8 years ago I bought entire bearing sets for my VW Golf, all were FAG, and were made in Korea and the cone ones in Slovenia. They worked perfectly till I drove that car.
The OE equipment will be FAG in a german brand of car. But if it concerns too much then SKF, Koyo, Timken etc are equally good - I have even used an Italian bearing in an idler pulley - Italians are not known for long lasting quality

I bought the below part 2-3 years ago; since then the place I bought them from has been gradually changing the parts they sell to cheaper parts.
I think the Support Bearing I used from Korea was an INA Bearing mentioned by the other Member. The Drive Shaft Support I bought was Meyle (made in Thailand). During the U-joint Job where I changed the above parts I reused the old Flex Discs. Within the last 3 months I replaced the Flex Discs with LEMFÖRDER/Lemfoerder/Lemforder Flex Discs. And, after removing the Old ones you could see that the needed to be changed.
