So I have lived in South Korea for 6 years now. The fact that this fire has had such a major impact is quite typical of Korean bureaucracy and tech administration. Very few backups, infrastructure held together with scotch tape and bubblegum, overworked devs and maintainers. It's a bit sad, especially for a country that exports so many tech products.
