To appropriately deal with anti-monopoly cases involving digital platform markets, it is necessary to comply with the general principles and provisions prescribed by the Anti-Monopoly Law. However, we should not simply adopt the general approach and disregard the characteristics of digital platforms and digital platform markets. To delineate the relevant market in digital platform markets, special attention should be paid to the choice of methods. A variety of methods should be adopted to analyze and delineate the relevant market, and the outcomes should be verified and corroborated. To determine whether an undertaking in digital platform markets holds a dominant market position, special consideration should be given to the characteristics and unique factors of digital platforms and digital platform markets, and their role in the formation, maintenance, and consolidation of the dominant market position. It is inappropriate to rely too much on the indicative role of market share and to directly deduce market dominance by market share. To determine whether the conduct involved in digital platform markets is a monopolistic one prohibited by the Anti-Monopoly Law, the rule of reason should be adopted, and the economic effects should be tested to determine whether the conduct involved is justifiable and compatible with the rule of reason.
