Naver headquarters in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province / Yonhap
Services of South Korean online portal Naver, which had experienced disruptions following President Yoon Suk Yeol's unexpected martial law declaration, have normalized, according to industry sources Wednesday.
Naver Cafe, the company's online community platform, and the portal's news service, which had undergone disruptions from a sudden surge in traffic after Yoon's announcement late Tuesday, have been normalized as of 1:20 a.m. Wednesday.
Naver conducted emergency maintenance of its services following the traffic surge.
Similar access issues were reported on Daum, the country's second-largest web portal. Kakao Corp., the operator of the portal, however, said no service errors or problems have been identified. (Yonhap)
