[South Korean Legal Community: Cryptocurrency Accumulated During Marriage is Divisible Property]
Deep Tide TechFlow reports that on April 25, according to South Korea's *Asia Economic Daily*, a woman in her 40s discovered two years after her divorce that her ex-husband had secretly invested in cryptocurrency during their marriage and made substantial profits. In response, Kim Na-hee, a lawyer from South Korea's Shinsegae-ro Law Firm, stated that stocks and virtual assets acquired during marriage are considered divisible property. If one was completely unaware of such assets at the time of divorce, an exception can be made to file a supplementary division request, but this must be done within two years of the divorce date. Regarding asset tracing, the party involved can apply to the court for a property disclosure order and retrieve approximately three years of bank transaction records to identify deposit and withdrawal activities related to exchanges. Subsequently, they can request a document submission order from the court to verify the virtual asset holdings of the ex-spouse.
