SEOUL, May 29 (Yonhap) -- Veterans Minister Kwon Oh-eul said Friday he believes Starbucks Korea should face sanctions over the recent controversial marketing campaign associated with the May 18 Gwangju democratization movement, saying it was not the result of an "individual deviation," but a company-level marketing scheme.
