According to the data obtained from the Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit (FIU) by Jin Shih-jun, a member of the Democratic Party of the Planning and Finance Committee of the South Korean National Assembly on the 22nd, the number of suspicious transaction reports (STR) submitted by virtual asset service providers from January to August this year reached 36,684, which has exceeded the total of 35,734 in the last two years. According to the current "Specific Financial Information Law", virtual asset service providers in South Korea must report transactions suspected of money laundering to the FIU.
Illegal transactions using stablecoins have also been uncovered recently. In May, the Customs Department seized a case in which an underground money changer illegally sent about 57.10 billion won via the US dollar-pegged stablecoin USDT (issued by "Tether") after receiving cash from Russian importers.
