  "summary": "The head of South Korea's antitrust watchdog, Ju Biung-ghi, has vowed to restore justice after a local court recently cleared the way for the agency to resume its stalled probe into U.S.-listed e-commerce giant Coupang Inc. Ju made the remarks during an interview with local radio broadcaster CBS, signaling the agency's intention to resume its investigation into allegations that Coupang had shifted the costs of discounts onto its suppliers. Last month, Coupang refused to cooperate with the watchdog's on-site probe into the allegations and asked a court to suspend the inspection. However, the court initially granted a temporary suspension of the FTC's on-site inspection but eventually rejected Coupang's request to halt the probe last week.",
