[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Nahum] Naver and Kakao's leftover vaccine inquiry and reservation services are down due to communication errors with the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA).

On the 15th, Naver announced on its official blog, "Since around 12 PM, there has been a symptom where the leftover vaccine quantity cannot be checked due to unstable communication with the KDCA," adding, "After the KDCA system is restored, services such as checking leftover quantities, receiving notifications, and making reservations will be available."

On Naver, the leftover vaccine quantity checking service has been intermittently working and not working.

Similarly, on Kakao, all leftover vaccines appear as 'Closed,' and clicking on them only shows a 'Connecting' message, indicating a similar error.

Kakao stated, "Due to communication errors with the KDCA server, there is a phenomenon where the leftover vaccine quantity cannot be accurately confirmed," and added, "We understand that the KDCA system restoration is currently underway."

A KDCA official said, "We are currently analyzing the issue to determine what the problem is," and added, "We will take immediate action as soon as the problem is identified."
