Bae, Kim & Lee LLC held a seminar on "Latest Trends and Response Strategies in Customs and Foreign Exchange Investigations" in collaboration with the American Chamber of Commerce in Korea (AMCHAM) on April 30. The event, held at the Bae, Kim & Lee headquarters in Jongno-gu, was attended by approximately 140 participants.

The seminar addressed key topics such as President Trump's tariff measures and the Korea Customs Service's strengthened enforcement stance. In his welcoming remarks, Lee Junki, Managing Partner at Bae, Kim & Lee LLC, stated, "Violations of the Customs Act and the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act do not simply end with additional tax assessments. They often lead to administrative sanctions such as fines, and in more serious cases, even criminal penalties. Therefore, greater caution is required."

The Bae, Kim & Lee customs team, led by attorney Joo Sungjun, includes attorneys Han Wisoo and Shim Kyuchan, advisor Lee Chanki (former Deputy Commissioner of the Korea Customs Service and former Commissioner of Incheon Main Customs), as well as other experts with backgrounds in the Korea Customs Service. Trade specialist accountant Kwak Simyung, foreign accountant Jeremy Everett, and senior advisor Kim Jongyun also provide comprehensive advisory services ranging from pre-tax consulting and risk mitigation to dispute response.
