Coupang disclosed a major data breach that exposed the personal information of nearly 34 million South Korean customers; the company says the breach began in June but was not noticed until November, initially underestimating the impact and later revising the victim count upward, a development that led to the CEO's resignation and replacement. The report also notes this incident as part of a broader pattern of significant security incidents affecting South Korea this year.
