"Sira Folsomn. Assistant Packaging and Fulfillment Manager, Division H14, Korfo II branch."
―Lapin Tagge[3]

Korfo II was a location[3] in the Korfo system within the Core Worlds[1] and the Interior.[2] It was situated in grid square M-9 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] During the Imperial Era, Korfo II was the site of a branch of Tagge Corporation.[3]

By 3 ABY,[4] the company employee Sira Folsomn served as the Assistant Packaging and Fulfillment Manager of Division H14 at the Korfo II branch. At the same time, Folsomn secretly worked as a spy for the resurgent criminal syndicate Crimson Dawn and, after this was discovered by the corporation, the spy was brought before head of Tagge Corporation, Lady Domina Tagge, and her[3] secretary,[5] Lapin Tagge,[6] to be interrogated on several charges. From a datapad, Lapin read off Folsomn's career with Tagge Corporation, including her position within the Korfo II branch.[3]
