A | 공정위, 과징금 3.4억원 부과 [듀오]결혼정보업체 듀오가 전문직·명문대 회원 수를 업계 최다라고 허위·과장 광고한 혐의 등으로 공정거래위원회의 제재를 받았다.공정위는 표시광고법상 거짓·과장 광고 혐의로 듀오에 시정명령과 공표명령을 내리고 과징금 3억4500만원을 부과했다고 26일 밝혔다.조사 결과 듀오는 2022년 4월께부터 최근까지 인터넷 기사와 홈페이지, 블로그, 옥외 광고 등을 통해 ‘업계 최다 전문직 5135명’, ‘명문대 회원 수 1만6479명 업계 최다 보유’ 등의 문구를 내걸어 광고했다.그러나 공정위는 이 같은 광고에 객관적인 근거가 없었으며, 듀오가 경쟁 업체와 비교하는 과정도 전혀 거치지 않았다고 지적했다. 전문직과 명문대의 기준 역시 듀오가 자의적으로 정해 산출한 통계라고 판단했다.듀오는 의사와 치과의사, 한의사, 수의사, 약사, 변호사, 판·검사, 회계사, 세무사 등을 전문직으로 분류했다. 명문대에는 의학계열 대학과 서울·수도권 대학, 지방국립대, 사관학교, 한국과학기술원(KAIST) 등 특수대학을 포함했다.듀오는 ‘업계 유일의 외부감사 대상 법인’, ‘국내 유일 금융감독원 전자공시 업체’ 등으로 광고한 혐의도 받았다.실제로는 광고 기간 중 전자공시시스템(DART)에 감사보고서를 공시한 경쟁 결혼정보업체가 있었던 만큼 공정위는 해당 광고 역시 허위라고 판단했다.듀오는 또 ‘업계 최대 230명 전문 매니저’라고 광고했지만 실제 매니저는 2023년 10월 기준 188명에 그쳤다. 광고에 내세운 230명에는 일반 직원까지 포함된 것으로 나타났다.공정위는 결혼정보업 시장의 경우 고객이 실제 가입해 서비스를 이용하기 전까지 상품 내용을 알기 어려운 만큼 사업자들이 광고할 때 객관적인 근거와 사실에 기반한 정확한 정보를 제공하는 것이 중요하다고 강조했다.공정위 관계자는 “앞으로도 결혼정보업 분야의 부당한 광고를 지속해서 감시하고, 소비자가 신뢰할 수 있는 거래 환경이 조성되도록 노력할 계획”이라고 말했다.。 (ECNS) -- Retired U.S. teacher Ronald Sakolsky, who once donated $5,000 to support China's desertification control efforts 26 years ago, reunited on Sunday with his Chinese friend Yin Yuzhen, a desertification fighter in Ordos, Inner Mongolia. Their story began in 1999, when Sakolsky taught English at a school in Henan Province under a teacher exchange program between the two countries. After watching a television news report about Yin's tireless work, he was deeply moved and raised the $5,000 to help Yin and her husband in their afforestation campaign. Yin spent almost all the money on buying more saplings, keeping just one dollar bill as a souvenir. Today, the slender saplings have grown into a vast forest. Yin gained national attention in May when she issued a public search for Sakolsky, which ended successfully. On the day of the reunion, Yin chose a green coat and arrived early at Ordos Ejin Horo International Airport. "I plant trees, and the earth is green," she said. The red scarf draped around her neck was the same one she had worn during her early days of planting trees in the desert, although it had been washed over and over again. She had practiced three English phrases: "Welcome to China," "my brother," and "more, more," her way of saying "Please eat more" to show hospitality. But when they finally met, she couldn't utter a single word. As Sakolsky came down the escalator, he kept wiping tears from his eyes. Yin hurried forward and held out her arms. The two held each other tightly, tears welling in their eyes. "This is a dream come true," said Sakolsky. "She made a promise 27 years ago and kept her promise. I never thought I would see her again. It is a miracle, but it shows culture and people can still keep promises." He praised Yin as an extraordinary woman who has made great contributions to China. He mentioned that he had intended to take a tree home to the United States, but was prohibited by law — which drew laughter from the tearful onlookers. Yet he was determined to bring back some sand home with him, saying in all seriousness that if necessary, he would pack it in his shoes. Invited by the China Education Association for International Exchange (CEAIE), his itinerary from Aug. 23 to Sept. 1 will also include China-U.S. teacher exchange events, a visit to Henan to meet with teachers and students at the school where he worked, a visit to the press briefing hall of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and visits to historical and cultural landmarks. Official figures show that China has contributed about one-quarter of the world's increase in green vegetation and rehabilitated 152 million mu (about 10.13 million hectares) of desertified land between 2021 and 2025.
