韩国媒体和通信审查机构将听取 Polymarket 的意见,然后再决定是否对预测市场平台发出纠正请求。
韩国媒体和通信审查机构表示,将听取 Polymarket 的意见,然后再决定是否对预测市场平台采取纠正行动。
周一,广播、媒体和通信审查委员会表示,将允许 Polymarket 在就赌博问题的纠正请求做出最终决定之前提交其立场。
根据新闻稿的机器翻译,该委员会表示:“我们决定为 Polymarket 提供提交意见的机会,以彻底核实 Polymarket 的合法性以及服务的运营方式。”
韩国国家赌博管制委员会法案将“非法赌博业务”定义为包括提供投机性赌博的在线服务,并赋予监管机构监督和打击此类业务的权力。
此次审查正值 Polymarket 在多个司法管辖区面临准入限制之际。据Polymarket称,其平台在33个国家受到限制,包括美国、英国、法国、德国、巴西、新加坡、日本和澳大利亚。

韩国的审查从用户转向平台
此次审查标志着韩国对 Polymarket 的审查从用户转向平台本身。此前,警方还对当地 Polymarket 用户涉嫌与选举相关市场有关的非法赌博进行了调查。
6 月 5 日,江原道警方对当地 Polymarket 用户发起了韩国首次非法赌博调查。据当地媒体当时报道,此次调查是应国家警察厅的要求进行的。
根据韩国刑法,赌博可处以最高 1000 万韩元(约 6,500 美元)的罚款,而习惯性赌博可判处最高三年监禁或最高 2000 万韩元的罚款。与此同时,以营利为目的经营赌博场所可判处最高五年监禁或最高3000万韩元的罚款。

Polymarket 表示,其限制旨在遵守制裁、当地金融规则、赌博和预测市场法律、反洗钱要求和了解你的客户法规。
该公司还将其他可访问国家/地区的某些地区列为受限制的地区,包括加拿大的阿尔伯塔省、不列颠哥伦比亚省、安大略省和魁北克省,以及乌克兰的克里米亚、顿涅茨克和卢甘斯克。

South Korea weighs action against Polymarket over gambling concerns
Latest NewsPublishedJul 6, 2026
South Korea’s media and communications review body will hear from Polymarket before deciding whether to issue a corrective request against the prediction market platform.
South Korea’s media and communications review body said it will hear from Polymarket before deciding whether to take corrective action against the prediction market platform.
On Monday, the Broadcasting, Media and Communications Review Committee said it would allow Polymarket to submit its position before making a final decision on a corrective request regarding gambling concerns.
“We decided to provide an opportunity for Polymarket to submit its opinion to thoroughly verify the legality of Polymarket and the way the service is operated,” the committee said, according to a machine translation of the press release.
South Korea's National Gambling Control Commission Act defines "illegal gaming business" to include providing online services that enable speculative gambling and gives regulators authority to monitor and combat such businesses.
The review comes as Polymarket faces access restrictions in several jurisdictions. According to Polymarket, its platform is restricted in 33 countries, including the US, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Brazil, Singapore, Japan and Australia.

South Korea's scrutiny moves from users to the platform
The review marks a shift in South Korea's scrutiny of Polymarket from users to the platform itself. It also follows an earlier police probe into local Polymarket users over alleged illegal gambling linked to election-related markets.
On June 5, the Gangwon Provincial Police launched what was reportedly South Korea’s first illegal gambling probe into local Polymarket users. The investigation was requested by the National Police Agency, according to local media reports at the time.
Under South Korea’s Criminal Act, gambling is punishable by a fine of up to 10 million won (about $6,500), while habitual gambling can carry up to three years in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won. Meanwhile, operating a gambling venue for profit is punishable by up to five years in prison or a fine of up to 30 million won.

Polymarket says its restrictions are designed to comply with sanctions, local financial rules, gambling and prediction market laws, anti-money laundering requirements and Know Your Customer regulations.
The company also lists certain regions within otherwise accessible countries as restricted, including Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec in Canada, as well as Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk in Ukraine.
