South Korean central bank officials have confirmed plans to restart CBDC testing, with a focus on Countering the Financing of Terrorism and improving liquidity and crypto markets. Formal documents were sent to major banks, outlining a second round of trials that may involve distributing government subsidies in digital form. The first pilot, launched in April, was halted due to high costs and low practical value. This new phase aims to refine methods and reduce administrative burdens.
