In the first 4th of 2025, South Korean customs officials detected attempts to falsify the country of origin of goods for a full amount of 29.5 billion won (more than $20 million). As many as 97% of them were destined for the American market. According to Reuters, it is mainly goods originating in China that tried to enter the US marketplace with a false description "Made in Korea". For companies from your centre, it is simply a way to circumvent the draconian duties that began to apply after Donald Trump returned to the White House.
