Connected reporting
Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.
Exact same title/body with Ulsan670million-won/three-year/three-target account supports duplicate reported-proceeding coverage; amounts and targets are not additive.
A page can change after it first appears. Observation dates record when its URL was seen; they do not prove that the wording assessed here was present on every date.
