Bom Kim, Coupang founder and chairman of the U.S.-headquartered Coupang Inc., issued his first verbal apology regarding last year’s large-scale customer data breach in Korea, during an earnings call, Friday. Speaking during Coupang Inc.'s earnings call for the fourth quarter of last year, Kim said he once again apologized for the customers' concern and inconvenience caused by the personal data leak that occurred last year. Kim issued a written apology in December, about a month after the data breach was disclosed, but this was the first time that he has apologized directly in a public setting.
