Starbucks Korea raided by police after 'Tank Day' campaign sparks public outrage

South Korean police raided Starbucks Korea's headquarters and executives' homes as part of an investigation into a controversial 'Tank Day' marketing campaign that was accused of trivializing the country's 1980s pro-democracy movement and the Gwangju massacre. The campaign sparked significant public outrage and prompted law enforcement action against the coffee chain. The investigation marks a serious response to what many viewed as culturally insensitive corporate marketing.
