An official from the Jinhae Public Health Center in Changwon City, which has already completed its inspection, said, “No bed bugs were found during the on-site inspection of the Coupang distribution center in the district. We also checked the restrooms and other accessible facilities inside.”
Other public health centers, including the Yongin City Public Health Center, are scheduled to begin on-site inspections of Coupang logistics centers in their jurisdiction tomorrow (8th).
Coupang has denied the rumors, calling them “baseless.”
A Coupang official said, “There have been no reports of suspected bed bugs. We plan to take strong action, including legal action, against the person who first spread the rumor.”
