South Korea’s Fair Trade Commission announced provisional corrective measures and penalties totaling 631.9 billion won against delivery platforms operated by Woowa Brothers (Baemin) and Coupang, citing requirements that restaurants offer terms no less favorable than those available on rival apps. The regulator said the rules could restrict competition among platforms.

The companies have disputed the regulator’s findings and said they will review the written decision, according to local reporting. The penalties remain subject to the formal order and any legal challenge; the companies’ response is included here because the decision is contested.
