Odaily Planet Daily: The South Korean government today released a "Roadmap for the Internationalization of the Korean Won," aiming to transition the won from a regulated currency to a freely convertible one and to establish an offshore won settlement network. The Bank of Korea will launch a system tentatively named the "Offshore Won Settlement Network," with a trial run expected in September this year and an official launch in January next year. South Korea will also build a digital asset payment infrastructure to lay the foundation for the issuance, distribution, and trading of won-denominated stablecoins, and plans to launch a pilot project next year to promote the tokenization of government bonds linked to the central bank's institutional digital currency CBDC. In addition, South Korea will officially join the Agora cross-border digital payment project led by the Bank for International Settlements BIS, which brings together eight central banks.
