Summary
South Korea's digital commerce market is highly advanced, with online shopping reaching KRW 23.03 trillion in July 2025 and mobile shopping at KRW 18.15 trillion. However, many Korean companies struggle with post-sale customer relationship management because their operational systems remain fragmented across departments. Siloed teams and unclear execution ownership slow the adoption of integrated post-sale customer systems, creating a disconnect between the sophisticated front-end digital experience and the back-end operational infrastructure.
