South Korea's crackdown this time was impressive, over 100 million USD... but they can't run away on the first day, but they won't escape on the fifteenth.

You're at it again, cracking down on money laundering, and this time the amount isn't small.

Haha, another wave of money laundering caught. This time, South Korea's crackdown is quite fierce.
Now those guys doing cross-chain transfers should be nervous.
Over a hundred million dollars just gone like that. Honestly, it's a bit frustrating.

Well done, but I'm just worried they might run away quickly...
