The new President of South Korea, Lee Jae-myung, has promised to support the launch of a Crypto Assets ETF and a won stablecoin.

On Tuesday, South Korea's voter turnout reached 79.4%, the highest level in 28 years. Lee Jae-myung defeated right-wing opponent Kim Moon-soo with a vote rate of 49.42% (41.15%). Lee Jae-myung vowed to address South Korea's urgent economic challenges, including providing more support for low-income families and small business owners, while also committing to laying a more solid foundation for South Korea's Crypto Assets industry. Lee Jae-myung's Crypto Assets commitments include the launch of Spot Crypto Assets ETF in South Korea. Since the unexpected success of the U.S. Crypto Assets ETF, South Korean financial authorities have been considering this plan. As of today, any local issuance and trading of Crypto Assets ETF are prohibited. Another key initiative is the approval of stablecoins pegged to the Korean won. Lee Jae-myung stated during a discussion last month that South Korea needs to establish a stablecoin market based on the Korean won to prevent domestic capital outflows.
