The Fair Trade Commission (FTC) has initiated procedures to impose sanctions on Baedal Minjok (Baemin), one of the country's largest food delivery platforms, for alleged unfair market practices. After completing its investigation, the FTC sent a statement of objections to Woowa Brothers, the operator of Baemin, regarding accusations that the company pressured restaurants to use Baemin's delivery service instead of their preferred couriers.
Baemin is suspected of violating the fair trade act by inducing restaurants to rely on Baemin's delivery network, limiting their freedom to choose other delivery options. The FTC plans to finalize its decision on possible sanctions, which could include corrective orders or fines, after considering Woowa Brothers' response.
The FTC is also investigating similar allegations against another major food delivery platform, Coupang Eats, focusing on practices such as forced bundle sales of multiple services by its operator, Coupang.
