Opinion: South Korea has not yet truly entered the stablecoin market; it needs to first answer why it is worthwhile to use it.
According to Odaily Odaily, Yoon Seung-sik, head of Tiger Research, stated that the South Korean won stablecoin market does not yet have a real place, not because it lacks potential, but because South Korea has not yet experienced enough market practice and discussion. Unlike the United States, which has undergone years of trial and error, regulation, and market evolution in the field of stablecoins, related discussions in South Korea are just beginning. South Korea's financial infrastructure is already very well-developed, and the real challenge lies in answering "why consumers need to use won stablecoins." Yin Chengzhi believes that the core keywords for the digital asset industry in the first half of this year were stablecoins, tokenization, and RWA. While AI Agents and DeFi have long-term potential, they are still far from large-scale implementation. Stablecoins and tokenization, on the other hand, have accumulated numerous global case studies, driving more institutions to accelerate their entry. It is expected that the digital asset market in the second half of the year will continue to focus on regulatory developments, the actual effectiveness of stablecoins and RWA implementation, and new retail market narratives.
