The Digital Asset Market Regulation Bill proposed by the Korean National Assembly in the fall of 2022 will be passed by Subcommittee 1 of the Congressional Political Affairs Committee in April.
It is reported that on March 28, members of the first subcommittee began to show a keen interest in the bill.
“On March 28, the first subcommittee resolved the issues of the bill and narrowed the differences among members, so it is expected that the bill will be passed in April.” Representative Kim Hee-gon, a member of the first subcommittee, said on March 29.
Several officials from the Political Affairs Commission also reported on the same day.
“In the first subcommittee of the Political Affairs Committee, lawmakers conducted in-depth discussions on the bill to regulate digital assets.”

Analysts say the National Assembly standing committee has shown so much interest in the bill because the atmosphere has been created to urge legislation to regulate unfair trade after the CEO of Terraform Labs (TFL) Kwon Do-hyeong was recently arrested in Montenegro on suspicion of a forged passport. Currently, the most awaited information is which country Do Kwon will be extradited to while South Korea and the US are waiting for him to confront fraud charges and manipulate market prices.
The Director of the Korea Financial Supervisory Service also revealed today that Do Kwon wants to be deported to South Korea. They are also doing their best, such as sending investigators, to repatriate Do Kwon.
