South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) has failed to meet its December 10 deadline to present a stablecoin regulation bill, citing coordination delays. The FSC now aims to release the proposal by the end of the year or early 2026. Tensions have arisen with the Bank of Korea, which advocates for a 51% bank ownership in stablecoin issuing entities, a stance the FSC opposes, favoring fintech-led models seen globally. The delay in regulation could affect South Korea's efforts to counter the financing of terrorism through digital assets. The FSC's inability to meet the deadline highlights ongoing internal disagreements over the structure and control of stablecoin issuance in the country.
