According to Yonhap News Agency , in 2020 , the total transaction value completed through online platforms in South Korea reached 130 trillion won, an increase of about six times from 21.7 trillion won ten years ago .
Transactions on online platforms also accounted for 30% of South Korea's total retail sales in 2020 , a significant increase from 24% in 2019 , affected by the new coronavirus and social distancing rules .
Therefore, South Korea recently announced plans to invest 300 billion won ( about US$267 million) over the next three years to accelerate the growth of domestic digital retail business .

It also plans to train about 1,200 experts and open new graduate and learning courses by 2026 to meet the growing demand for online retail services.
The South Korean government said it will actively participate in the World Trade Organization ( WTO) negotiations on international rules in the field of e-commerce and help local companies establish deeper links with global retailers. But at the same time, as South Korean e-commerce companies maintain close ties with overseas, government departments will also strictly regulate online transactions of dangerous goods.
