Coupang Interim CEO Questioned Over Data Breach Probe

Harold Rogers, interim CEO of Coupang Corp., faced intense questioning by South Korean authorities regarding a major data breach. The incident, affecting an estimated 33 million users, is under investigation for evidence destruction allegations.

The probe centers on Rogers' handling of a laptop linked to the breach, which was recovered in China and submitted to police. He also faces accusations of perjury during parliamentary testimony and obstructing official investigations.

Coupang's internal probe findings have been criticized as one-sided by authorities. The company maintains it is fully cooperating with government investigations.
