Coupang's profits have fallen sharply after a data breach in South Korea. While recovery is underway, users should be aware of potential security risks when using the platform.

South Korea's e-commerce giant, Coupang, experienced a significant profit decline following a major data breach. This may affect service quality and availability for international users, including travelers relying on Coupang for deliveries in South Korea.

While Coupang is working to restore its systems, travelers should exercise caution. Consider alternative e-commerce platforms or local retailers for essential travel supplies to minimize potential disruptions.

Monitor Coupang's official announcements for updates on service restoration and security enhancements. Stay informed about potential risks and take necessary precautions to protect your personal data while using online services in South Korea.
