Quirks specific to South Korea

• OPENDART is the public-disclosure system for listed and large unlisted Korean firms — not all Korean companies appear; private SMEs are not in scope.
• get_financials returns IFRS-formatted statements (KIFRS). fetch_document returns the original Korean-language XBRL / iXBRL filing.
• Officers (임원) and major shareholders (주주) are filed quarterly/annually in mandatory disclosure forms.
• Stock codes (6-digit) and corp codes (8-digit) are distinct identifiers; use get_company_profile to map between them.
