The Exchange is doing this change because of the rules of Korean regulators. The local regulatory authority of Korea raised issues on these services.
The main reason to close the P2P services is because S. Korean regulators believe that P2P is not a good option of trading because these may bring many illegal activities like Money Laundering without knowing the exchange.
