[South Korea May Ban Corporate Investments in Stablecoins] According to Korean media reports, the Financial Services Commission of South Korea is drafting the 'Corporate Virtual Currency Trading Guidelines,' which may exclude stablecoins from the permissible investment scope. The guidelines will outline the standards for listed companies and registered professional investment firms to trade digital assets for investment or financial purposes.
