Kakao Map Review, the boundary between protected ‘opinions’ and problematic ‘expressions’
Kakao Map reviews are an important information channel where consumers share their experiences. But not all reviews are like that.
The platform judges reviews based on whether they are a shared experience about a service or product, or whether they are a disparagement or insult to a specific individual.
In particular, if the review focuses on evaluating the worker's attitude, personality, or qualifications rather than the food or service process, this may go beyond the scope of a legitimate complaint.
Recently, many of the Kakao Map-related inquiries received by White Me arise from this ‘boundary between opinions and insults.’
