Fighting fashion fakes
This photo from Tuesday shows fake products of foreign brands confiscated by the police. The crime ring responsible for smuggling more than 50,000 boxes of luxury goods, valued at 1.5 trillion won ($1.1 billion), into the country, has been apprehended by the Incheon Coast Guard. While the authorities have seized approximately 600 boxes of counterfeit products, the rest is believed to have already made their way into the domestic market. [YONHAP]
