Correction
On April 4, Tobacco Reporter relayed an article, first published in the Korea Times, about graphic health warnings in Korea.
The article made reference to a statement, issued by a group of cigarette manufacturers in response to the warnings, that reportedly said, “The measure infringes upon our right to promote our products by using attractive designs.”
A representative of the local tobacco industry pointed out that such as statement was in fact never made.
Tobacco Reporter regrets the error.
