CryptoWorld News reports that according to Bloomvingbit, the Korean Ministry of Economy and Finance stated that tokenized stocks are considered securities rather than virtual assets. If the Financial Services Commission confirms their security status, they can be taxed immediately under the current Capital Markets Act, with implementation possibly as early as the second half of this year.

South Korea is moving quite quickly, regulating this directly as securities—so taxes can be collected in the second half of the year.

The Financial Committee hasn't finalized it yet; implementing it in the second half of the year feels a bit rushed.

Taxation based on capital market law means that tokenized stocks in the secondary market also have to pay capital gains tax?

The RWA track has just heated up, and Korea has already set the rules first — it's both protection and a barrier.
