What the document holds

ACRC press release of 15 Jan 2024 (3 pages incl. a before/after table): the PIWPA amendment passed by the National Assembly on 9 Jan 2024 (already an event): no reward cap (was KRW 3 billion) and rewards up to 30% of the amount recovered (added as rules), lawyer fees for internal whistleblowers, two laws added to the covered list (471 laws), duty to follow ACRC disciplinary requests, asset searches for relief subrogation. Images are logos/icons only. Korean amounts: 억 = 100,000,000 and 만 = 10,000. A figure printed with 억 only is recorded in 억 (scale 'hundred million', e.g. 1.6억 = 1.6); one printed with 억 plus 천만/만 (e.g. 2억8천여만) is recorded in units of 만 원 (scale 'ten thousand': 2억8천만 = 28000), as earlier Korean rows do.
