Since the list of 404 restored systems as of 9 a.m. that day, an additional eight systems have been brought back online. The most notable among them is the National Law Information Center, a first-tier system.

In addition, the main website of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency, a third-tier system, has also been partially restored.

The recovery rate for systems across all tiers from 1 to 4 has now surpassed 50%. The recovery rates by system tier are as follows: first-tier systems at 80.0%, second-tier at 69.1%, third-tier at 62.5%, and fourth-tier at 50.0%.
