Starbucks Korea has amassed a substantial sum from prepaid cards over the past six years. Meanwhile, a Starbucks café in Beijing, China, recently displayed Chinese national flags alongside its logo.

Starbucks Korea's prepaid card scheme has proven lucrative. Over the past six years, the company earned 40.6 billion won in interest from 2.6 trillion won loaded onto these cards. This revenue stream has significantly contributed to the company's growth in the Korean market.

In a separate development, a Starbucks café in Beijing, China, was spotted with an unconventional addition to its usual logo. The café, not explicitly named in available search results, had equipped itself with Chinese national flags near the Starbucks logo. This move comes amidst ongoing geopolitical tensions.
