The fight between proponents and opponents of taxation is very visible in many countries, including the USA. Is such fight visible in your country?/PARK HYE MIN(박혜민)

 This kind of fight is also taking place in Korea. In particular, Gangnam-gu in Seoul and Seocho-gu in Seoul are the most affluent areas in Korea. The number of habitual defaulters disclosed by the National Tax Service is about 39,000, indicating that they can be easily seen around us. The ostensible reason why they do not pay taxes is that their business is ruined and they have no assets, but the area where they actually live shows that they live in an area that cannot be called moneyless.

 In South Korea, inheritance and gift taxes are the least taxable part of the country. Frankly speaking, inheritance tax is a property received from parents, and if they received enough property to pay taxes, they do not even pay taxes on it, but the direction and method of dealing with it seems weaker than in other countries. In this regard, it has become a reality that Korea has no choice but to be perceived as a country easy to live in if it has a lot of money.

 Among the recent issues related to inheritance tax, various comments were posted on the article that the inheritance tax that children have to pay in the process of inheriting their wealth due to the death of Samsung Chairman Lee Kun-hee. The main point is that Samsung is a large part of Korea's economy and has made great contributions, which critics say may be paying too much tax. Against this backdrop, some think that the government is collecting taxes from the people, but is not using the taxes it has collected properly, leading to the opinion that the nation should reduce the inheritance tax it has to receive from Samsung Group.
