Let's talk more about this with reporter Han Sung-hee.

Q. In the end, an official apology... The remaining questions?

[Reporter Han Sung-hee: First of all, what did Congressman Kim believe in the little-known so-called "Job Coin" and put more than 10 billion won, this part is being pointed out the most. And although Congressman Kim clarified that he was not, there are doubts within the party as to whether he may have used undisclosed information. In particular, this coin called Wimix, which Congressman Kim is said to have held hundreds of thousands, or more than 100 million, when and how much this coin, It does not disclose how much it was bought for, which has raised doubts. I spoke directly to an expert who tracked Congressman Kim's exchange account, who said, "In the process of transferring Wemix Coin to another exchange, we split it more than 3 times over three months," adding, "From the financial authorities' point of view, this part may have been viewed suspiciously."]

Q. The inclusion of virtual currency in property declarations, what is the legislative discussion?

[Han Sung-hee: Even in the 10th National Assembly, virtual currency should be included in the declaration of public officials' assets. These amendments were proposed, but most of them were scrapped due to the expiration of their terms. The threshold was not crossed due to legal concept issues and lack of relevant regulations for virtual currencies. Currently, a total of five bills are pending in the 20st National Assembly, and the discussion has not slowed up so far, but all the opposition parties are showing a strong commitment to legislation in the wake of this controversy. If the Ethics in Public Officials Act is amended and implemented, next year, lawmakers will have virtual currency that has not been declared so far, or they will cash it out before then. We can see an increase in deposits.]

Q. What about the "Virtual Currency Property Incorporation" bill?

[Han Sung-hee: According to the Legislative Research Office of the National Assembly, among the 21 laws under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the Financial Services Commission, and the Ministry of Welfare, virtual currency is not considered property. Therefore, when selecting welfare benefit recipients, only real estate and automobiles enter the property, so even if you have a large amount of virtual currency, there is now such a possibility that you can fraudulently supply and receive virtual currency. There is also a proposed bill to incorporate virtual currency into property at all, but we will have to wait and see whether it will be processed.]
