Attorney Ohoon Kwon to Deliver Virtual Asset Law Lecture for Major Korean Bank Staff
Cha & Kwon Law Firm's Attorney Ohoon Kwon will deliver a specialized virtual asset law lecture for staff at a major Korean bank on June 23, 2026 (Tuesday).

This lecture has been organized to provide banking professionals with a practical, real-world understanding of the key legal issues they must navigate in the rapidly evolving virtual asset regulatory landscape.

From stablecoins and STO to real-name accounts, foreign exchange, and taxation virtual asset regulation is now directly intersecting with day-to-day banking practice, making proactive legal preparedness more critical than ever for financial institutions.

Attorney Ohoon Kwon will provide a clear assessment of where Korea's virtual asset regulatory framework currently stands. The Virtual Asset User Protection Act is already in effect, STO legislation is set to take effect in 2027, and stablecoin regulation has yet to be enacted. Korea's virtual asset regulation is effectively running on three separate clocks at once.

This lecture will address how banks can practically navigate this complex and evolving regulatory landscape.
