Korea's 220 trillion won Green New Deal program from the Moon administration is running into legal trouble and missed targets.
Prosecutors have raided 78 sites and made four arrests investigating alleged irregularities in the 220 trillion won Green New Deal, with several flagship green-energy projects set to end next year without meeting performance goals. Separately, joining the CPTPP trade pact is projected to lift Korea's GDP by 0.38 percentage points over a decade, while farm and fishery compensation for affected sectors could reach roughly 300 billion won. Together, the stories highlight scrutiny of past stimulus spending alongside new trade tradeoffs ahead.
