Good day, I am an investor from overseas and I am interested in the crypto market. I have heard that South Korea has a thriving crypto industry, and I was wondering if foreigners are allowed to trade cryptocurrencies in your country. Could you please provide some insight into the regulations and procedures that I may need to follow? Also, are there any specific exchanges or platforms that cater to international investors?
