周二，特别检察团队突击搜查了韩国的就业劳动部，以调查Coupang员工未付遣散费的指控。搜查针对世宗市部总部以及首尔地区雇用劳动办公室。此次调查重点关注Coupang物流子公司涉嫌变更就业规则的行为。
周二上午，特别检察官安权燮团队对韩国中部世宗市的就业劳动部总部进行了搜查和扣押。此次行动是强制调查的一部分，针对Coupang未能向员工支付遣散费的指控。检察官和调查人员抵达现场，收集该部关于Coupang遣散费争议的政策指南数据。多名负责劳动和退休金政策的部官员的手机被没收。搜查令还涵盖首尔地区雇用劳动办公室。特别检察办公室最近曾传唤部分就业劳动部官员，就其处理Coupang案件的情况进行讯问。电商巨头Coupang的物流部门Coupang Fulfillment Services涉嫌于2023年5月变更就业规则，此举对服务满一年的工人不利，导致未支付遣散费。一名特别检察官员表示：“此次对就业劳动部的搜查是为了核实与Coupang相关的各种嫌疑”，但拒绝提供进一步细节。此次调查凸显了该部监督方面的潜在失职，此后持续调查预计将揭示争议的起源和影响。

In the latest escalation of tensions over South Korea's probe into Coupang's massive data breach, more than 80 ruling bloc lawmakers plan to send a joint letter protesting the US government's defense of the e-commerce giant, arguing it infringes on judicial sovereignty. The letter responds to recent US complaints, including demands for the safety of Coupang's chairman and a letter from over 50 Republican lawmakers.
