What was the outcome of these meetings? Have they switched to Firefox?

They never did afaict. Eventually smartphones became ubiquitous and I think most S. Koreans bank on their phones using apps. As for those who bank on computer, I dont know what happened when Active-X was deprecated. It was a poor decision by the S. Korean govt. to hang their hat on that technology.

They settled down with chromium based browsers. Microsoft was pushing Edge and Naver, the largest Korean search engine company, also developed Whale browser based on chromium.
