A 4 billion won financial incident occurred at Woori Bank. The bank said it plans to proceed with criminal complaints after legal review.
On the 16th, Woori Bank disclosed that a financial incident occurred due to the submission of falsified documents by an outsider.
The loss from the incident amounts to 4.008 billion won, and the incident period was Aug. 19–30, 2024.
A Woori Bank official said, "It is an incident related to a discounted pre-sale scam, and because there is commercial property as collateral, some of the funds may be recoverable."
