According to Seoul Economic Daily, the Virtual Asset Crime Joint Investigation Unit under the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office in South Korea may face the risk of dissolution due to prosecutorial reforms. The report states that the Prosecutors' Office is expected to be abolished in October this year, which could also impact departments like the Virtual Asset Crime Joint Investigation Unit that have been formally incorporated into the prosecution system. This unit was upgraded from a joint investigation team to a formal department in February 2025 and has so far filed cases against 80 individuals and arrested 28. Legal experts believe that if the related inter-agency collaboration and investigation command mechanisms cannot be maintained, the ability to investigate specialized virtual asset crimes may be compromised. https://(wublock123.com)/news/south-korea-virtual-asset-crime-unit-risk-of-dissolution-63178
