[Contribution] Export vouchers, a ‘strategy’ rather than a ‘subsidy’
Exporting companies must know how to use export vouchers and the criteria for selecting successful partners. The global trade environment surrounding domestic exporting companies is changing faster than ever. The strengthening of tariffs and export controls in the United States, the expansion of environmental and ESG regulations in the EU, and the advancement of certification and non-tariff barriers by country are now a reality that applies not only to large corporations but also to small and medium-sized export companies without exception. In this environment, the 'Export Voucher Project' supported by the government goes beyond cost support and has established itself as a key strategic tool that manages the risks of export companies and accelerates entry into the global market. When the Export Voucher Project needs to focus on 'proactive risk management' beyond marketing The Export Voucher Project is a system designed to allow small and medium-sized export companies to freely select and utilize the services of private professional organizations registered as executing agencies by receiving vouchers from the government. In the past, it tended to be used for simple marketing, translation, and exhibition participation support, but recently, as global regulations have strengthened, the importance of 'proactive risk management services' has been greatly highlighted. Through the voucher, companies can receive initial entry advice, such as establishing an overseas corporation, as well as dispute prevention through export contract review and response services to the complex regulations and certification of the export partner country. Furthermore, it is possible to receive professional assistance for global risk management, ranging from precise diagnosis of tariff and non-tariff barriers to response to US tariff measures and export controls, which are hot topics in the recent trade environment. A problem often seen in practice is that legal, tariff, and regulatory risks are revealed only after a contract is signed, resulting in a situation where the cost of post-action response far exceeds the amount of voucher support. This is why export vouchers should be used at the early design stage rather than as a short-term cost-cutting tool.Fragmented advice is risky, and an 'integrated solution' is neededExport is not a single area problem. Within one transaction, complex issues such as contract law, customs law, foreign exchange transaction law, taxation, intellectual property rights, and local regulations are intertwined. This is evidenced by cases where a single overseas agency contract turns into a dispute over exclusive rights, errors in FTA origin judgment lead to additional tariffs, and brand use is blocked due to unregistered trademarks. Therefore, rather than seeking separate advice for each field, companies should find an implementation agency that will comprehensively review all of these factors. We must carefully consider whether a one-stop service covering legal affairs, tax affairs, customs duties, and intellectual property rights is possible, and whether professional personnel such as lawyers, customs experts, and tax accountants can collaborate within one system to design a structure to prevent disputes from arising from the beginning. This is the way to prevent dispersion of responsibility and disconnection of strategy. You must work with a partner who is responsible for implementation. In order to maximize the efficiency of using export vouchers, it is advantageous to select a partner who goes beyond the realm of advice and supports practical implementation. In other words, there is a need for a system that goes beyond consulting and supports trade document agency related to contracts, customs clearance, and payment, as well as overseas certification and local registration procedures. In particular, it is more important for small and medium-sized companies with limited internal manpower to select an implementation agency with such a complete structure. This is because, given the reality of companies lacking a separate dedicated department, handling everything from advice to document processing and local registration all at once will reduce the work burden and, conversely, enjoy the tangible effect of improving work speed. Furthermore, it will also be an important criterion to check whether the company has extensive experience in responding to actual disputes or sanctions rather than theoretical explanations, and whether the latest global trade issues can be immediately reflected in practice. Export vouchers, companies that use them properly will survive. Exporting has now become a strategy that determines the survival of companies. The export voucher project is the most powerful weapon given to the country to implement its strategy. What is important is ‘with whom and how’ you use this weapon. Instead of viewing vouchers as homework to be exhausted, companies should use them as an opportunity to find a reliable partner to accompany them on their global journey. If we select a company with the expertise to take full responsibility for our company's overseas expansion and actively utilize it, the trade environment of crisis will actually become an opportunity.[View full article] [Contribution] Export vouchers, a ‘strategy’ rather than a ‘subsidy’ (Shortcut)

임플란트 받고 보험금은 '턱뼈 이식'으로…사기 혐의 치과의사 '무죄'
After receiving the implant, insurance pays for ‘jaw bone transplant’… Dentist accused of fraud 'not guilty'
He was accused of issuing a false medical certificate even though there was no 'alveolar bone grafting'. Law: "We must take into account the nature of the treatment within the hospital... We cannot rule out that it is an auxiliary material." A dentist who was put on trial for aiding and abetting insurance money fraud by issuing false medical certificates during the implant surgery process was acquitted in the first trial. The Ulsan District Court in November last year found dentist A, who was indicted on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud and writing a false medical certificate, not guilty. Mr. A is accused of aiding and abetting seven patients to swindle 13.8 million won worth of insurance money from insurance companies by issuing false medical certificates as if he had also performed 'alveolar bone grafting' even though he only performed implant surgery on the patients. The prosecution determined that no actual transplant surgery took place, citing the fact that the bone graft product sticker attached to the confiscated medical records had already been used on other patients or had expired. Mr. A completely denied the charges. It is argued that the error in the medical record was only an administrative error, and that the actual surgery was performed normally. Mr. A countered, saying, “The implant used in the hospital is a ‘wedge-shaped’ product, not a typical screw type,” and “This method necessarily involves a bone grafting process to fill the gap by collecting the autologous alveolar bone generated during the implant placement process.” The court ruled in Mr. A’s favor. The court explained, "The fact that there are duplicate or expired implant stickers attached to the medical record raises suspicion, but we cannot rule out the possibility that this is an auxiliary material." He continued, "The 'wedge-shaped implant' performed at the hospital requires two surgeries to cover the gums," and added, "Because the gap around the implant must be filled with autogenous bone naturally collected during drilling during this process, there is a possibility that an actual bone graft surgery was performed. “It is sufficient,” said Shin Min-soo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A. “Unlike general implant surgery, it was effective to explain in detail to the court the medical mechanism of the special method used by our client.”[View full article] After receiving the implant, insurance pays for ‘jaw bone transplant’… Dentist accused of fraud 'not guilty' (Shortcut)

'기울어진 운동장' 한국 vs '증거 강제' 미국… 쿠팡 소송의 향방
‘Slanted playing field’ Korea vs. ‘Forcing evidence’ USA… The direction of the Coupang lawsuit
[Interview] Son Dong-hu, SJKP American lawyer, "American court evidence can be used in Korea as well" Victims of Coupang's recent personal information leak incident have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. headquarters (Coupang Inc.), drawing industry attention. The legal community considers the 'discovery' (evidence discovery) system, which does not exist in Korea, as the key to victory or defeat, and believes that Coupang's internal reporting system and concealment circumstances, which were shrouded in mystery, may be revealed. There are also predictions that the evidence secured during this process could determine the direction of lawsuits and investigations in progress in Korea. In an interview with Money S on the 6th, U.S. attorney Son Dong-hoo of SJKP, who is leading the Coupang U.S. lawsuit, suggested that proceeding with the Coupang lawsuit in U.S. courts rather than in Korea could increase the success rate. The background to Attorney Son's suggestion is the compulsory nature of 'securing evidence.' Attorney Son pointed out, "Korean litigation is like a 'tilted playing field,'" and "Victims have to prove the company's wrongdoing, but in many cases, the company does not hold onto and release important server records or internal reports." On the other hand, the situation in the United States is different. This is because there is a discovery system that obligates both sides to disclose evidence before the trial begins. Attorney Son explained, "In the United States, a company can be forced to release all data related to a case, including internal emails, messenger conversations, and server access records. This is the system that Korean companies are most afraid of." He explained that Korea also has a system called 'document submission order', but it is not comparable to the United States in terms of effectiveness. In Korea, the plaintiff must specifically prove that “document A is over there” and ask for it to be pointed out. However, the reality is that from the perspective of a victim who does not know the company's internal circumstances, it is difficult to even know what to ask for. Attorney Son added, "US Discovery can request the entire 'information that may be related to this case'," and added, "It is a structure that makes it virtually impossible for a company to hide information just because it is a trade secret or is disadvantageous." “Even if the server is in Korea… if there is ‘control’ at the head office, it is subject to enforcement” Some raise the question of whether it would be difficult for a US court to enforce the data because it is located in a Korean corporation (Coupang). In response to this, Attorney Son explained, “The standard for U.S. courts is not physical location, but ‘who controls it?’” and “If the U.S. headquarters has the power (control) to order a Korean corporation to submit data, the U.S. court can issue a disclosure order even if the server is on the other side of the world.” What happens if a company deletes or does not submit unfavorable data? Attorney Son emphasized, “In an American court, destroying evidence is tantamount to suicide.” He said, “If you hide the data, the court will consider it as a de facto admission of the fact, saying, ‘How much of a sting would it take to hide it?’” and “It is even so strict that it will rule on the case immediately after the trial is over.” Attorney Son predicted that the ramifications of this lawsuit will not stop at the United States. He added, "Internal data legally obtained in U.S. lawsuits can be used as decisive evidence in trials or investigations in progress in Korea," and added, "There have been many cases in the past where internal documents revealed through U.S. discovery turned the tables on Korean lawsuits." Finally, Attorney Son said to victims who hesitate to participate in lawsuits, "The class action lawsuit and discovery system in the U.S. is a system that exists to reveal the internal truth of companies that individuals cannot access," adding, "We can file lawsuits against large corporations." “It is not easy to raise the issue, but this is a process that goes beyond simple compensation and establishes the correct standards for corporate responsibility,” he emphasized.

이젠 줄서기가 직업…'두쫀쿠 맛집' 대신 웨이팅, 월 500만원 번다
Now waiting in line is my job... Earns 5 million won per month by waiting tables instead of ‘Duchokku Restaurant’
"I'm looking for someone to help me stand in line at Hongdae when we move from December 31st to January 1st. "On December 26th last year, this post was posted on the online used goods trading platform Carrot. This job posting, which offered a cost of 30,000 won, attracted 30 applicants. On the night of December 31 last year, ahead of the New Year, long lines were waiting to enter bars, restaurants, and game rooms in the middle of Hongdae despite the cold wave of minus 8 degrees. Among this procession was Mr. Park (43), who has been working professionally as a line queuer for over 5 years. He said, “Recently, there has been a significant increase in requests to wait in line at restaurants such as luxury hotel restaurants and bars. There are people who earn an average of 4 to 5 million won per month, and during the COVID-19 period, their income was up to 8 million won due to the most work, so there are cases where waiting in line is their full-time job.” Not only in Hongdae, but also at Carrot in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do, “I am looking for a line waiter in a bar in Sangnam-dong on January 1st (Changwon City) for 50,000 won.” As articles were posted, it was easy to find related articles from all over the place. The content was diverse, such as “I was born in 2007, and I want to enter as soon as 12 o’clock,” and “I don’t want to waste time with the opposite sex, so I’m looking for someone to stand in line for me.” Likewise, ‘line-waiting part-time jobs’, which were previously limited to purchasing limited editions of luxury brands, have recently expanded into restaurants, bars, bakeries, etc. and are becoming popular nationwide. It emerged in the late 2010s, and as demand increased before and after COVID-19, it expanded into a form of professional agency part-time work. Recently, as the number of customers has increased explosively at Daejeon's famous bakery 'Seongsimdang' and several cafes selling 'Dubai Chewy Cookie', a dessert popular among young people, the demand for people to stand in line at these shops is also increasing. The general line queuing allowance is the minimum wage (10,320 won), but higher wages may be charged depending on the date or situation. Mr. A, the owner of an agency that specializes in providing waiting services, said, “Outdoor waiting is more expensive per hour, and during peak seasons such as the end of the year and the beginning of the year, the premium is about 50%.” Experts analyzed that the development of platforms and changes in the perception of modern consumers are behind the rapid increase in the number of people who do not hesitate to pay for the goods plus the act of waiting in line. Choi Cheol, a professor of consumer economics at Sookmyung Women's University, explained, “In the past, it was common to go out of your way and endure inconvenience to consume, but these days, consumers recognize time and effort as specific transaction costs and are willing to pay additional costs.” Lee Eun-hee, a professor of consumer studies at Inha University, said, “With the development of the Internet and platforms, matching between suppliers and consumers for even minor services is easy,” and predicted, “Services such as bar queuing, which are segmented demands, will continue to appear in the future.” There is also controversy over such queuing service. Kwak Jun-ho, a lawyer at the Cheong Law Firm, said, “The act of waiting in line itself is not problematic under the current law, but there is room for moral criticism about settling with money for limited goods.” Jeong-min Cheon, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, pointed out, “The reality is that there are no regulations on the behavior of organized agency businesses,” and “There are some stores that explicitly ban queue-queuing agencies, and if they do not comply with a store’s request to vacate, there may be a potential for legal disputes.” Reporters Han Chan-woo and Lee A-mi han.chanwoo@joongang.co.kr[View full article] Now waiting in line is my job...

[Exclusive] Even after Jang Deok-jun’s industrial accident… Coupang only announced “0 accidental deaths”
[Anchor] Coupang, which is suspected of trying to downplay the overwork of the late Deok-jun Jang, who died while working at Coupang, was found to have done this. Even though Mr. Jang died while working at Coupang, it was reported to the U.S. financial authorities that no employee died in an accident. Reporter Do-yoon Lee reported exclusively. [Report] Deok-jun Jang, who finished working overtime at the logistics center, died in October 2020 and February 2021. The Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service determines it to be an industrial accident. In March of the same year, Coupang was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Mr. Jang's death occurred five months before listing, and recognition as an industrial accident occurred a month before. I checked the 2021 annual report submitted by Coupang to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Coupang's safety system is described as the best in the world, and it states that there has been no accidental death so far. The same happened in 2022, when at least one person died at the logistics center. This is a report. What stands out is Coupang's own classification method. After distinguishing between 'work-related' and 'accident-related' deaths, it only stated that there were '0' accidental deaths and did not mention work-related deaths. Although disclosure of the number of deaths is not required under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's disclosure regulations, Coupang used 'expression' in the report that could easily be perceived as having no employee deaths. [Son Dong-hoo/US Attorney/Representative of Coupang Class Action Litigation: "The measurement standard was set too narrowly and important context was omitted. There is a high possibility that it will be evaluated as a disclosure that could mislead investors by omission..."] If this annual report, called 10-K, is found to be a false or deceptive disclosure, it will be subject to not only civil but also criminal and administrative liability. There have been more than 9,900 industrial accidents reported by Coupang to the Korean government over the past five years. However, the U.S. disclosure only said that there were no self-classified accidental deaths. Coupang said, "Until then, there were no industrial accidents at Coupang and its subsidiary businesses. “There are no deaths,” he explained. The intention is that Mr. Jang Deok-jun’s industrial accident was not an industrial accident. This is Do-yoon Lee of KBS News.

고객 신뢰 먹고 자란 쿠팡…경쟁법 칼날 드리워진다 [대륜의 Biz law forum]
Coupang grew up on customer trust... Competition law sharpens [Daeryun’s Biz law forum]
Coupang incident, It is not limited to the area of ​​personal information law. Fair trade law evaluation is possible when considering market dominant position. Large platforms should be required to take responsibility commensurate with their influence. The recent personal information leak incident that occurred at Coupang goes beyond a simple failure to protect information and raises important issues worth reexamining from a fair trade law perspective.. So far, personal information leak cases have been mainly discussed in the area of ​​the Personal Information Protection Act or the Information and Communications Network Act. However, if the platform company that is the party to the leak has a market dominant position or an equivalent competitive advantage, the legal evaluation is based on the Fair Trade Act.(or competition law)It has no choice but to expand into the area of. information leak, Distortion of the entire platform business order The essence of platform business lies in trust.. Consumers gain convenience and price competitiveness in exchange for providing personal information., Based on this, the platform strengthens economies of scale and network effects.. The problem is that if personal information is leaked in this structure, the damage is not limited to infringement on the rights of individual consumers, but also has the potential to distort the competitive order of the market as a whole..In particular, large platforms such as Coupang have a structure in which trading partners have limited options.. In this situation, accidents caused by neglect of personal information management act as a barrier to entry for competing businesses and at the same time affect consumers. 'Crying and eating mustard' This can lead to forcing a deal..Fair trade law has traditionally been, terms and conditions, We have regulated acts that restrict external competition, such as exclusive transactions.. However, the recent trend of competition law is based on data and algorithms., There is a trend to recognize non-price factors, such as loss of platform trust, as important competitive variables.. The level of personal information protection is also an extension of that.. Evading responsibility after the fact also distorts consumer choice. Looking at the Coupang incident from a fair trade law perspective,, The key points are summarized in three points..first, Whether there is a market dominant position or equivalent competitive advantage. In general, when determining a market dominant position, not only market share but also dependence on transactions in that market is considered., fungibility, The level of entry barriers are comprehensively considered.. Coupang's share of transactions and frequency of use in the e-commerce platform market, In particular, the repetitive use structure in the area of ​​everyday consumer goods is not unrelated to these judgment factors..The second is the so-called 'lock in(lock-in) effect'all. Membership Structure, fast delivery infrastructure, Points and subscription benefits act as factors that substantially increase consumers’ switching costs.. On the surface, it seems like a device to expand consumer benefits, but, If, as a result of the benefit, a structure is formed that makes it difficult for consumers to move to another platform even if they are dissatisfied with the level of personal information protection or transaction conditions, this may be evaluated as a competition-limiting effect..third, It's a matter of combining and accumulating data.. Large platforms have a purchasing history, search history, Payment information, We continue to strengthen our competitive edge by combining and analyzing multi-layered data such as shipping information.. Neglecting to manage personal information protection under this data combination structure may affect the overall data-based competitive order.. If a market-dominant business enjoys a competitive advantage through data combination but does not fulfill its corresponding protection obligations, it can raise an issue under fair trade law.. Evading responsibility or delaying damage relief during the response process after an accident also acts as a factor that distorts consumers' rational choices.. Germany, Unauthorized use of data 'Abuse of market dominant position' Regulations This issue is not only being discussed in Korea.. European Union(EU)and the German competition authorities already treat data and privacy protection as an important element of competition law..EU In the process of enforcing competition laws on large digital platforms, the Commission has continued to raise concerns about the impact of personal information collection and use on consumer choice and competitive structure.. In particular, it makes clear that personal information processing conditions may be evaluated as unfair transaction conditions if the platform actually functions as an essential transaction counterparty.. It is an approach based on the recognition that personal information protection is a factor that determines the quality of competition beyond regulatory compliance issues..The case of the German Federal Cartel Office is more direct.. German competition authorities took issue with the practice of a dominant platform operator combining and utilizing data collected from various services without the explicit consent of users. 'Abuse of market dominant position'It has been judged that. The key point in the case was not the data combination itself, but whether the consumer could actually refuse it or choose an alternative.. in other words, The judgment was made by linking the protection of personal information and the effect of limiting competition into one issue..These overseas cases show that personal information protection is gradually moving to the core of competition law rather than its outskirts.. Privacy Protection Competence, not obligatory 'competitiveness'Coupang's personal information leak incident clearly shows the intersection of personal information protection and fair trade law.. The Fair Trade Act no longer just governs price fixing or market division.. Fair trade law in the digital platform era is also required to play a role in protecting the trust infrastructure of the market.. From a policy standpoint, there is a need to clearly recognize personal information protection capabilities as a key competitive factor.. In the digital platform market, the level of personal information protection is no longer considered an incidental compliance item, but an essential transaction condition that determines consumer choice and trust.. Nevertheless, imposing only the same level of ex post sanctions or formal obligations on market-dominant platforms would be a measure that does not sufficiently reflect the reality of the data-driven competitive environment..There is a need to demand greater accountability and transparency from large, market-dominant platforms commensurate with their influence.. Disclosure of information regarding personal information processing and security investments, Quick and effective damage relief procedures in the event of an accident, Responsibility for explaining data combination and utilization structures must be institutionally supported.. This is not simply a discussion about increasing the level of punishment., The purpose is to establish the prerequisites for competition so that market participants can make rational choices..This approach is not aimed at sanctions or punishment against specific companies.. Privacy is not a cost across platform markets 'competitiveness'In the long run, it can be said to be the minimum condition for creating a competitive environment in which innovation and trust are compatible..Coupang's personal information leak incident goes beyond a technical incident and raises questions about the social and competition legal responsibilities that platform companies must bear from their dominant position.. If a platform has grown based on consumer trust, the legal evaluation that must be endured when that trust is damaged should not be limited to the framework of the Personal Information Protection Act.. From the perspective of competitive order, There is also a need to calmly look back on this incident from the perspective of the evolution of the Fair Trade Act..

'그림자 임원' 김범석 동생, 쿠팡은 왜 드러내지 않으려 했나
'Shadow executive' Kim Beom-seok's younger brother, why did Coupang not want to reveal it?
'Protecting Brother Kim Beom-seok'Trying hard…Coupang's aim to swindle the Korean government and consumersU.S. Attempts to defend stock market prices and minimize litigation risk…'Sanctions, class action lawsuits, consumer defection' The bills get bigger'Coupang incident'National Assembly aimed at 6The unprecedented joint hearings of the Dog Standing Committee ended in chaos.. The direction of Coupang's response, which is increasing confusion with half-baked follow-up measures, is ultimately pointing to 'Protecting Chairman Kim Beom-seok’s brother'and 'stock price defense' 'Minimize litigation risk'all. However, the devices prepared by Coupang and Chairman Kim's brothers to avoid various regulations and judicial risks are actually increasing the level of sanctions and the possibility of large-scale lawsuits at home and abroad.. 'Kim Beom-seok appointed as CEO' The biggest variable is the large-scale personal information leak of Coupang's younger brother Kim Yu-seok. What is clearly revealed is that Chairman Kim's younger brother, Vice President Kim Yu-seok, is the executive in charge of the delivery camp management division at the Korean corporation.. 2021New York Stock Exchange, USA(NYSE)Coupang listed onIncis past 5New York Stock Exchange per year(NYSE)In the disclosure report submitted to Chairman Kim's 'Specially related person'It has been revealed that Vice President Kim belongs to Coupang.. However, his title was not disclosed., Employees dispatched from US headquarters to Korean corporation(employee) listed as one of. Coupang said in its report, Vice President Kim(English name Yoo Kim)second 'Beomseok Kim(Bom Kim) He is the chairman's brother and his spouse also works at Coupang.'explained.Vice President Kim’s role is 'Strategy and operations related'by, He wrote that compensation was set at the same level as other employees.. According to the announcement, Vice President Kim 2024Salary from Coupang in years 43ten thousand dollars(approximately 6100 million200010,000 won)and 7only4401Shares subject to state transfer restrictions(RSU)received. Current stock price per share 23If applied in dollars, approx. 24It's worth billions of won. RSUIt is paid when an employee satisfies the conditions such as performance and longevity set by the company.. Vice President Kim 2024year only 30Received cash and stocks worth over 100 million won, Report released after listing(202124Yearly salary)The cumulative payment amount of the award is 140It's over 100 million won.In industry and politics, Vice President Kim is an unregistered executive, but, 2014It is believed that he has played a significant role in the company's major management activities and decisions, including being involved in the company's major management activities and decisions together with his older brother, Chairman Kim, who has been with Coupang since 2012.. One industry insider said "The mere fact that Kim Yoo-seok did not want to reveal that he was the vice president shows that he already has considerable influence and decision-making power within the company."He said "It appears that an attempt was made to separate external and internal positions from a risk management perspective, as Kim Beom-seok's designation as head could lead to completely different results depending on Kim Yu-seok's role and status."said.The existence of Vice President Kim is the same person as Chairman Kim.(count: A person or corporation that actually controls a large conglomerate) It is considered a key variable in determining whether to designate. The Fair Trade Commission 2021Although Coupang was designated as a large conglomerate in 2018, it designated Coupang Corporation as the same person, saying there was insufficient evidence to designate Chairman Kim, who is a U.S. national, as the same person.. At the time, this decision was controversial., Afterwards, the Fair Trade Commission made it possible for foreigners to designate the same person and specified the requirements and exception provisions for designating the same person for corporations.. Even after this, Chairman Kim, a foreigner, has no shares in domestic affiliates and his relatives do not participate in management., Designation of the same person was avoided by acknowledging exceptions such as no financial transactions with the company.. Authorities are investigating Vice President Kim 'Although he belongs to Coupang, there is no basis to judge that he participates in management.'I saw it.however 2025year 12He is serving as vice president during the large-scale personal information leak incident and hearing in March., This year, it was confirmed that he received a significant amount of compensation and stock incentives. 5There is analysis that it will also affect the screening of the same person scheduled for this month..Joo Byeong-ki, Chairman of the Fair Trade Commission "Is Kim Beom-seok's younger brother Kim Yu-seok participating in management?, There is a need to investigate how much bonus and compensation is being received."and avoiding institutional loopholes. 'Prevent trick'It was pointed out that law amendments should follow for. Chairman Joo "(Chairman Kim Beom-seok) Even if the person is designated as the same person, the provisions for actual punishment under the current legal system are too weak."as "regulation of private gain, A new law must be prepared to regulate even benefiting relatives by receiving excessive bonuses or bonuses."He emphasized.Coupang side "Vice President Kim is not in a position to make management decisions or directly engage in management activities., It is not a situation where you are receiving particularly higher salary or compensation compared to those in the same or similar position."as 'shadow executive'He denies the suspicion that he is working as a. "If false disclosure was made U.S. Expansion of litigation is inevitable"The emergence of interim CEO Harold Rogers, who became the head of the Korean corporation due to the personal information leak incident. 'Mocking the Korean government and people'Coupang's strange response, which was criticized as being negative, is becoming a bad news that further increases the risk.. While a joint public-private investigation is in progress, Coupang suddenly announces details that are close to self-exoneration., In the name of the National Intelligence Service 'Following instructions from authorities'He countered by saying,. Representative Rogers publicly announced this self-investigation. "This is a successful example of cooperation, but the Korean government is not properly informing the public."He also attempted to change the frame.. At the same time, Coupang was a victim of an information leak. 3370About 10,000 people '1per person 510,000 won purchase voucher provided' A compensation plan was also presented., When I opened the lid, it was actually '5000one-won coupon'It was just. Marketing of Coupang subsidiaries to victims 'Smishing behavior that crosses the line'A curse was poured out saying,.Even though we were able to predict the reactions of our government and domestic consumers, 1The analysis that US stock market investors are behind the repeated claims that do not match the car compensation plan is gaining weight.. In fact, ahead of Coupang's joint hearing, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC)In the materials submitted to △Identify the culprit of the leak △The culprit 3300Although 10,000 accounts were accessed, the actual data stored was approximately 3000Just a dog △my3It contains content that the Korean government has not confirmed, including confirmation that it was deleted without sharing., To consumers 1article6850It was also stated that coupons worth hundreds of millions of won would be paid.. Chairman Kim Beom-seok's situation 40In the English apology issued after one day, "false insecurity(false anxiety), falsely accused(false criticism)" Different from the Korean language, etc. 'False/false' It is pointed out that the use of the term was intended to reduce the risk of lawsuits from investors.. Even though Coupang took proactive measures and cooperated as much as possible with the Korean government, it made every effort to convey the message that the authorities were excessively pressuring and harassing American companies..Listed on the New York Stock Exchange 2021since 2025year 3until the quarter 150Coupang, which has spent more than 100 million won in lobbying funds and has shown aggressive actions against US politics and relations, faced its biggest crisis since listing due to its half-baked response to this incident.. The number of local law firms pursuing class action lawsuits against Coupang is increasing.. Levy & Kolcinkey law firm located in New York City, USA. "A class action lawsuit is being filed for shareholders who suffered damage from Coupang's information leak."It was announced. To date, the number of law firms that have announced the recruitment of plaintiffs for class action lawsuits related to Coupang is at least 5identified as a place. Rewards for insiders who report meaningful non-public information(of the amount collected 1030%)to pay SEC Introducing the regulations 'whistle blowing'A law firm encouraging. Personal information leakage incident and unfaithful disclosure to Vice President Kim Yu-seok, If the number of shareholders claiming damages from a fall in stock prices due to false disclosures to minimize the situation increases, the size of the lawsuit and the amount of compensation could grow to an astronomical scale..Chairman Kim and CoupangIncA class action lawsuit against is already underway.. The lead plaintiffs are shareholders of the New York City Public Pension, which consists of the New York City Public Employees' Pension and the Police and Teachers' Pension.. Shareholders support Coupang's initial public offering(IPO) In the process, the risk of overwork and death due to poor working conditions was concealed, and information about search results manipulation and supplier price enforcement was concealed., They claim that the stock price plummeted after being investigated by Korean authorities after listing. 'Grossly false and deceptive acts'It was stipulated that. 1planted 'No remand'It was judged and dismissed as, The plaintiff appealed and faced additional legal judgment.. While the lawsuit is currently in progress, a personal information leak occurred and suspicions arose against Vice President Kim Yoo-seok, leading to a drop in stock prices on the U.S. stock market and a class action lawsuit that Coupang was trying to defend..Son Dong-hoo, who is leading a class action lawsuit for victims of personal information leaks from Coupang in the United States. SJKP(Daeryun Law Firm USA Corporation) New York lawyer "There is a gap between the main content announced by Coupang through public disclosure and the reality., If this is intentionally omitted or hidden (1laterally) discovery(discovery) It will be verified through internal documents and decision-making structures at this stage."He said "Issues related to Kim Yu-seok 'Did you have the title of executive?'not, This is whether governance and decision-making risks that are important to investors have been sufficiently disclosed.. Even though Kim Yoo-seok, a related party, had a meaningful influence on the company's decision-making or control structure, if he reduced or omitted the disclosure, he could become the subject of a dispute and additional litigation would be inevitable."explained. Coupang's stock price, which had plummeted due to the information leak, rebounded by more than 6% after an announcement was made attempting to minimize the situation, recovering to $24 per share. However, as the Korean government announced stronger investigation and follow-up measures against Coupang, it fell 1.36% and 2.24% for consecutive days on December 30 and 31 last year, remaining at $23.59. ■ Possibility of cooperation with the U.S. National Tax Service in the midst of the special prosecution's speed war on 'external pressure on Coupang investigation' The permanent special prosecutor and the National Tax Service are also targeting Coupang. Coupang, which recruited people from the prosecution, the courts, the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the Fair Trade Commission, the National Tax Service, the police, and the National Assembly, is in a state of 'vegetable government' as the government issued a 'ban on contact with Coupang', warning of 'disgrace to the company'. If Coupang's systematic illegal response or collusive relationship is revealed in the permanent special investigation team's investigation, the fallout is expected to be significant. On December 31 last year, the Permanent Special Prosecutor Ahn Kwon-seop's team summoned and investigated Kim Jun-ho, a public interest informant on the 'Coupang Blacklist', as a witness. Mr. Kim worked as a member of the human resources team at Coupang Fulfillment Service (Coupang CFS) Protection Logistics Center for five months starting in November 2022, and was in charge of excluding job applicants using blacklist documents. The special prosecutor's team is investigating the main body of Coupang's case of non-payment of severance pay, as well as suspicions of unfair external pressure that arose during the investigation and reporting of this case. The suspicion of external pressure in the investigation, triggered by the revelations of Chief Prosecutor Moon Ji-seok, who was in charge of the case, inevitably expands the investigation to include collusion not only within the prosecution but also between officials of the Ministry of Employment and Labor and Coupang. Coupang CFS changed its employment rules in a way that was unfavorable to workers in May 2023, and the Seoul Eastern Branch of the Ministry of Employment and Labor at the time approved this. The special prosecutor's team is checking the overall process of the prosecution's investigation of Coupang and the acquittal after approval from the Ministry of Employment and Labor. The legal community believes that securing physical evidence to support the suspicion of external pressure will be the key. The National Tax Service, which detected Coupang's suspicion of offshore tax evasion and launched a high-intensity special tax investigation, hinted at the possibility of cooperation with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The political world believes that the US Congress's 'life-saving efforts' or the authorities' passive response will not be effective, given that this incident may have caused damage to domestic investors, such as exposing Coupang to a large-scale class action lawsuit. Lee Hae-min, a member of the Korea Reform Party, said, "Since Coupang did not provide the data (requested by the Korean government and the National Assembly), we came to the conclusion that it would take a bombshell from the US IRS to make a move." He added, "I wonder if Coupang will lobby beyond the Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) to the IRS. The cost of lobbying will also be considerable." We plan to file charges such as failure to appear under the National Assembly Testimony Act. CEO Rogers, former CEO Park Dae-jun, Vice President Cho Yong-woo, and Auditor Yoon Hye-young were included in the list of indictments on charges of perjury and other charges under the National Assembly Testimony Act.

[인터뷰] 역대 최대 피싱 피해액…한민영 변호사 "범인과 연락 끊기보다 '단초' 남겨야"
[Interview] The largest amount of phishing damage ever... Attorney Minyoung Han "Rather than cutting off contact with the criminal, we should leave a 'lead'"
last year 1month7Monthly phishing crime damage 7992Close to 100 million won'Institution impersonation type' Voice phishing victim 52%, 2030generation"Stock market boom recently, Investment leadership room fraud crimes increase significantly""We need to strengthen legal education for young people and raise social defenses." Last year's phone financial fraud, so-called 'voice phishing'represented by 'phishing crime' The number of cases reached an all-time high. Although the total amount of crime damage last year has not yet been calculated, the National Police Agency has already 1month7The amount of damage related to phishing crimes calculated monthly 7992It was the highest ever, approaching 100 million won..Especially in the elderly, as well as those who have just entered society or are planning to take their first steps. 2030The damage from crime among generations is extreme.. According to the National Police Agency, last year 1month~8In January, people impersonating organizations such as the Prosecutors' Office or the Financial Supervisory Service. 'Institution impersonation type' Voice phishing crime damage 6753It recorded billions of won, and the victim's 52%Is 2030It was a generation.The police last year 9month1From this month 31A large-scale special crackdown on phishing crimes has begun.. Dailyan last month 26We heard from Han Min-young, chief general counsel at Daeryun Law Firm, who has handled many cases related to phishing crimes, about the evolving criminal methods and legal response strategies.."crime method, Become very sophisticated…deepfake·AI Until use"One lawyer spoke about recent criminal methods. "In the past, crime methods, in the case of voice phishing, were simple enough to be used as a joke material with a vague tone of voice, but recent crime methods have become so sophisticated that even I was scared."explained.In particular, deepfakes and artificial intelligence(AI)As the number of criminal methods using phishing increases, there are concerns that the general public has become more easily exposed to phishing crimes.. One lawyer said "If you look at the details, the video or audio using deepfake is definitely a bit awkward."Although "People who are old or insensitive to technology may become victims of phishing crimes, even if they are a little awkward."said.In addition, one lawyer said that during the recent stock market boom, smishing(A crime that uses fake text messages to trick people into downloading malicious apps, sharing sensitive information, or losing money.)We note that fraud in investment reading rooms is increasing..One lawyer said "Just out of the blue via telegram or text message ‘High-profit guaranteed investment leadership room’are invited to"as "If you belong to a room 30If there are at least one person, everyone but me can be seen as a cheater."said.And then "Actual investment leaders create fake sites, but ordinary people mistakenly believe that the numbers that appear on the fake site are what they own."as "The leading forces give relatively small profits to the victims, but then the victims put in more money, and the forces deceive the victims until their investment money disappears completely, and only then do the victims realize the damage they have suffered."explained.A lawyer speaks to victims of phishing crimes "First, it is necessary to report it to the police and apply to the Financial Supervisory Service or a financial company to suspend account payments."as "After that, it is important to provide investigative agencies with a clue to track down superiors through consultation with a professional lawyer."advised. The following is a Q&A with a lawyer..-I heard that criminal methods are becoming more sophisticated every day.."In the past, crime methods, in the case of voice phishing, were simple enough to be used as a joke material with a vague tone of voice, but recent crime methods have become so sophisticated that even I was scared.. Now, deep fakes, deep voices, etc. AI Even technology is applied, for example, deepfake technology is used to pretend to be a real family, so even people with good sense are often fooled by being embarrassed at that moment without realizing that it is a phishing crime.. If you look at the details, the video or audio using deepfake is definitely a bit awkward.. However, people who are older or insensitive to technology may become victims of phishing crimes, even if it is a little awkward.."-What types of phishing crimes are newly occurring or are being watched recently??"As stock prices have recently entered a boom period, it is believed that fraud crimes in investment leadership rooms have increased noticeably.. In a way 'smishing' It can be seen as a type of crime. Just out of the blue via Telegram or text message 'High-profit guaranteed investment leadership room'You are invited to and it starts from there.. For example, in the room I am in 30If there are about 100 people, everyone except me can be considered a cheater.. There the wind catchers 'My profits also soared'Then, victims try to access the actual site and start investing.. However, the real investment leaders have put in some effort to create fake sites, and the general public mistakenly thinks that the numbers that appear on the fake site are what they own.. The leading forces give relatively small profits to the victims, but then the victims put in larger amounts, and the forces deceive the victims until their investment money disappears completely.. For example, the powers that be give victims 'have to pay taxes to the US government' 'The financial authorities are checking, so you have to add or withdraw additional money.' Requesting a transaction using all kinds of rhetoric such as 'AI told you about the method, but why? BDid you do it this way?'continues to demand damages while seizing the house.. However, the profits that should be returned are not received, and only then do the victims realize the damage they have suffered and are placed in a difficult situation.."-Recently, a romance scam based in Cambodia(Fraud under the guise of love) The organization is flourishing.. What are their specific methods??“These forces never talk about money from the beginning.. SNS It starts with exchanging greetings through the back.. In fact, this is partly the responsibility of our society, where there are often not many people to ask how they are doing every day.. Once you have made them emotionally depend on you and think you have gained a certain level of trust, you can now talk about money. There are two main cases.. In the first case, it flows similarly to the investment leadership method just mentioned.. for example 'Customs clearance was tied up due to taxes, but they said they could fix it by paying a certain amount.'If the victim hands over money, 'I need to send more'There are cases in which they continue to try to swindle damages until the victims say no more..In another case, criminal forces 'There is a good investment place that I know well.'There are also cases where people are guided to investment leadership rooms.."-After a series of recent personal information leaks, citizens are increasingly concerned as they say they are receiving a lot of text messages or calls encouraging phishing..“The crimes of phishing groups often begin with clever use of social issues, such as personal information leaks.. These are text messages 'Your personal information has been leaked, so check it out.' Recently, the number sending text messages has been 010Starting with , even ordinary people click without any doubt.. In that case, the cell phone will literally become a zombie phone.."-Please explain how to respond if you encounter a phishing crime.."It is important to report it to the police first.. Afterwards, it is necessary to immediately apply to the Financial Supervisory Service or a financial company to suspend account payments.. The next thing to do is to take active legal action.. When faced with a phishing crime, many people are embarrassed and either cut off contact with the phishing organization or erase the evidence. Rather, they receive advice from a phishing lawyer to keep in contact with the criminal. In some ways, this can be seen as a strategy to encourage investigative agencies to catch them.. It is important to provide investigative agencies with a clue to track superiors through consultation with a professional lawyer.."-Recently, there has been an increase in the number of young people who are relatively proficient in digital devices being victims of or involved in phishing crimes.. Please tell me what you think is the cause of this and what the solution might be.."Young people are likely to be safe from phishing because they are skilled with digital devices., Paradoxically, that skill and the desperation of employment difficulties make them targets of phishing organizations.. Recently, people have become victims of investment reading rooms after being deceived by promises of high returns., What's more serious is 'high paying part time job(part time job)'This is a case where one is lured by the bait and unknowingly participates in a crime using a cash collection scheme.. There are many unfortunate cases where people start out thinking it is a simple job due to their lack of social experience, but end up in prison.. In order to solve this, first of all 'There is no such thing as high profits without a reason.'I think it is important to have awareness of. At the government and platform levels, illegal job advertisements are thoroughly blocked., The social defense wall must be raised by strengthening legal education to inform young people of the real risk of involvement in crime.. 'I have this kind of luck'If you have even the slightest thought, you must doubt and doubt again.."
