Illegal sites selling smuggled duty-free cigarettes on rise

According to data from Incheon Main Customs, cases of tobacco smuggling increased more than ninefold between 2014 and 2015, from 49 to 449.  Illegal sites selling smuggled duty-free cigarettes at low prices have been steadily rising as the excise tax increase last year nearly doubled domestic tobacco prices.
