The Korea Consumer Agency surveyed products from major retailers in the third quarter of this year and found that four products reduced their capacity without consumer notice, resulting in an increase in unit prices.
The reduced capacity for each product was 8.3% for instant cooking food "The Side Dish Haenyeo's Kitchen Jeju Rhinocera Seaweed soup" and 10% for snacks "Homemade Oranda for the Strong Youth,"
Both types of
body wash 'Rush Dirty Spring Wash Shower Gel' were found to have decreased by 10.7%.
The Korea Consumer Agency recommended that the information be disclosed to the true price website and manufacturers and sellers clearly inform consumers.
In addition, major retailers such as hypermarkets and department stores have also asked them to post capacity changes to their stores.
The Korea Consumer Agency plans to continue "Schlink Inflation Monitoring" so that consumers can consume reasonably based on accurate price information.
