Ask what Korea is talking about.

Mirae Asset Securities confirmed on Saturday that hackers breached its systems, leaking personal information of some 39,000 customers and employees, the Korea Times and Yonhap report. The breach is part of a wider wave of cyberattacks on South Korea's financial sector; the Financial Services Commission said over 470,000 personal data records were leaked from 37 financial firms in the past month, with funds stolen estimated at 1 billion won ($745,000). Korean media coverage focuses on the scale and recurrence of such incidents, with an editorial from Korea JoongAng Daily noting a series of hacking incidents at Daishin Securities and Mirae Asset Global Investments.
