Could you list examples of the local equivalents that are in common use?

I know of Naver maps https://m.map.naver.com



Naver (search), Kakao(message+maps+transit), Daum(search/blogs etc), Coupang(online ordering), Shuttle Food Delivery / Yogiyo (uber eats) - few examples.


Naver runs a wide variety of services you'd expect, like payments, an online translator, a Yahoo Answers equivalent, messaging(LINE, which is ubiquitous not just in SK), a free blog offering, a search engine and a web browser.

Hancom: Microsoft Office

I don't really have a list, but in addition to maps, Naver also has search, email, calendar, cloud storage, etc.
