The Korean exchange has already said that they are paying back their customers after the thefts. The OP, by making that title thought he can start something.

That's good a good decision from the exchange authority. This is how situations can be handled in a better way and the reputation of the exchange can be gained. Maybe Op is not aware of the news clearly and it's better to make things more secure than just lossing and paying them back.
No its not true. Yet. They are only compensating for the loss of user's personal sensitive information and not for the account balance. It became a trend these days to hack an exchange which is poorly built with low-security features. If we want BTC or other cryptocurrencies to grow then we should have maximum security for wallets and exchanges.
