South Korea's data protection authority has temporarily suspended the local service of the AI application DeepSeek from the Chinese mainland, according to Yonhap news agency.
The suspension, which began on Saturday, is a response to privacy concerns under the country's stringent privacy laws.
Officials have stated that the app's services will resume once necessary improvements are made to comply with South Korean privacy regulations.
This move highlights the increasing vigilance in South Korea regarding data privacy and the adherence to local laws by tech services.
