Prosecutors launched an investigation into internet portal operator Naver’s alleged abuse of market dominance in relation to real estate sales information and raided the company’s headquarters Friday.
The Fair Trade Investigation Department of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office sent prosecutors and investigators to Naver’s headquarters in Bundang, Gyeonggi, on Friday afternoon to investigate the company on charges of violating the Fair Trade Act.
