韩国国税厅推进2027年虚拟资产征税准备，国会废税讨论停滞

Odaily Planet Daily News: The National Tax Service of South Korea is accelerating preparations for the taxation of virtual assets in 2027, including the establishment of a new Digital Assets General Division and the advancement of a comprehensive virtual asset analysis system. A petition signed by 50,000 people to abolish the virtual asset tax has not yet been placed on the agenda in the National Assembly, and related discussions have stalled. According to the current tax system, profits from virtual asset investments are taxed at 22% after deducting 2.5 million won. Stock investors do not pay capital gains tax when buying and selling stocks on exchanges, and losses from virtual assets cannot be carried forward across years. Related discussions are expected to progress after the government's tax reform plan is announced at the end of July.
