Coupang data breach: US VP expressed hope probe will not cause tension, says South Korean PM
US Vice President JD Vance is asking South Korea to handle its investigations into data leaks at e-commerce giant Coupang fairly, warning the issue could raise tensions. South Korean Prime Minister Kim Min-seok has said that there has been absolutely no discrimination against Coupang. The concern comes after two American investors accused Seoul of targeting the US-listed company. They say that campaign wiped out billions of dollars in value and they have now petitioned Washington to investigate and consider trade remedies.
