Korean court keeps Coupang’s record data breach fine in force, delays corrective action plan for 30 days

A Seoul court upheld a 423.6 billion won (approximately $315.6 million) fine against Coupang for its data breach and rejected the company's request to suspend the penalty. The court delayed a decision on Coupang's corrective action plan by 30 days.

Why it matters: E-commerce platforms and their customers in South Korea face continued enforcement of data protection rules; practitioners should monitor how the corrective action plan shapes compliance obligations for similar services.
