In the present time taxation rule matters are in trend in the lawmakers of S. Korea. 

According to lawmakers the rules of the South Korean government over Cryptocurrency exchanges and crypto buy and sell by their citizens are not perfect enough to implement for the taxation system.

For example if they will implement tax rules over overseas exchanges like  Binance exchange then there is a big issue because of the lack of transparency in spot trade & P2P buy and sell trade.

There are many things which are not able to convert the whole Cryptocurrency market  under a particular regulation rule perfectly.

So for now it is better to prepare Cryptocurrency tax law in a more defined way and we should consider Cryptocurrency Investment and earnings as another source of income and the tax rule will be applicable according to other income criteria.

Noh Woong-rae, legislator of Current democratic party of South Korea, announced that we will continue to use crypto tax law as another income source. And this rule will be applicable until July 2023.

And the tax will be applicable according to the law which has a threshold of $44,250. Above this threshold, tax will be applicable.

Lawmakers stated that we should consider Crypto Investment & win just like the lottery system, which came in the other category and also totally same tax rules applicable for crypto like we have to follow with the other income.
