Sorry for the question, when should OWIN be used with ASP.NET Core? Why do I need to use it? Any links or sample would be appreciated?

For new development, almost never. You'd use it when you have existing OWIN middleware or apps that you need to integrate with your ASP.NET Core app or there is specific OWIN-based middleware that you need to use and there is no equivalent or suitable alternative available in the ASP.NET Core ecosystem.
