This newly released list includes a total of 17 delinquent parties: 12 individuals, whose combined arrears amount to 1.1 billion won, and 5 corporations or organizations, whose combined arrears reach 400 million won.


In March, the city sent advance notices to those with large and habitual arrears to encourage payment, and provided an opportunity to explain their circumstances until September 30, 2025. However, for those who failed to fulfill their payment obligations, the city proceeded with the process of making their names public.


This year’s disclosure targets those who, as of January 1, 2025, have accumulated arrears of local administrative penalties and surcharges (non-tax revenue) totaling 10 million won or more, and whose arrears have remained unpaid for over one year. The information released includes the name or business name (for corporations), age, occupation, address, type of arrears, payment deadline, and the reason for the arrears. In the case of corporations, the name of the corporate representative is also disclosed.



An official from Yangju City stated, "By making public the list of individuals and entities with large and habitual arrears, we aim to raise awareness about delinquency and respond actively through various enforcement measures," adding, "We will continue our efforts to ensure fair taxation and to strengthen a culture of faithful payment."
