The Korean Jokbal Night Market franchise headquarters has been penalized by the Fair Trade Commission for violating franchise laws. They forced franchisees to buy packaging exclusively from designated suppliers. A fine of approximately $70,000 was imposed for this restriction, which is prohibited under Korean franchise laws. The headquarters monitored franchisees to ensure compliance and threatened to terminate contracts if they bought from other suppliers.
