SEOUL, March 13 (AJP) - Harold Rogers, Coupang's interim chief in South Korea, volunteered to participate in a dawn delivery at its logistics center on the outskirts of Seoul early Friday.

Rogers visited the center near Seongnam in Gyeonggi Province, where he helped load goods and deliver orders alongside workers.

His visit became known after photos were posted on social media by a person believed to be a staffer, and the e-commerce giant confirmed that Rogers visited the site to inspect its dawn-delivery operations and encourage workers.

The visit is widely seen as a preliminary inspection ahead of a planned visit by lawmakers slated for next week.

Rogers previously said he would take part in a delivery run when asked by lawmakers during a hearing at the National Assembly, shortly after the company's massive data leak was discovered late last year.
