Kang Young Soo, the regulator of electronic money transactions at the Financial Services Commission (FSC), declined to comment on the ICO except to say that the FSC was considering a "third party view." In addition, Young-soo asserted that the government wanted to apply blockchain technology and create a better infrastructure to regulate electronic money transactions.
