The National Policy Committee has urged the Bank of Korea (BOK) to adopt a forward-looking approach to stablecoins. During a recent business report review, the committee emphasized the growing demand and trend towards stablecoin adoption. While the BOK previously indicated conditional agreement on stablecoin issuance, prioritizing banks as initial issuers to mitigate potential financial and foreign exchange market instability, the committee suggests a more proactive stance. Some members highlighted that stablecoins are a growing trend and in high demand. This call for a forward-looking policy signals a potential shift in regulatory perspective, encouraging the BOK to explore innovative solutions and frameworks for responsible stablecoin integration into the Korean financial system. Further developments in this area will be closely monitored as they could shape the future of digital asset regulation in Korea. ```
