I think that Korolov ships to whoever and doesn't care what factions they are- they aren't aligned with the CW, they are just a business enterprise in the CW domain (although it would be odd if they told you to escourt a freighter to an Anarchist camp!).
We have
had a similar discussion before regarding Neutral ships, who trade with "Enemies" and other Neutrals.
The Tempus Labs and Black Markets are Neutral Factions, as are the Korolov and several other station types. Thus, they are all able to trade with eachother - by means of T-31's that you see everywhere, or Korolov freighters; just because the Labs deal in drugs doesn't mean they are Enemies in the traditional sense.
Unlike the Neutral T-31's, the Korolov don't trade with those stations that are Enemies to the Player (eg, Charon Pirates), most likely because game-wise, the player would be unable to escort the freighter without getting attacked. However the Korolov will still trade with any and all Friendly and Neutral stations, ranging from Ice Farms to Tempus Labs.
