Those are dead pixels. It's common to happen on an lcd tv. To my knowledge the only way to fix it is to take it to a repair shop. It should take a week at the least, although I'm not sure how much it'll cost.

Contact Samsung to have the local authorized service center replace the bad panel while it's still under warranty.
