SK C&C, which hosts a data center for Kakao, said Wednesday it has started to fully supply electric power to the tech firm's disrupted servers, a move that could lead to a full normalization of Kakao services.
"The power supply rate reached 100 percent at around 5 a.m.," an SK C&C official said.
A fire at Kakao's data center near Seoul on Saturday caused the worst server outage ever for South Korea's dominant messenger and its internet portal Daum.
