"Digital ID is Not Merely an ID Card, But the Starting Point for Digital Transformation of National Infrastructure."
RaonSecure CEO Soon-hyung Lee emphasized the importance of digital identity at the "Web 3.0 Forum Breakfast Round Table" held on the morning of the 30th at the National Assembly Building. The Web 3.0 Forum was established to explore new growth engines based on Web 3.0 through collaboration among industry, academia, research, and government, aiming to position Korea as a leading Web 3.0 nation through technology expansion, industrialization, and policy recommendations.
In Korea, mobile IDs are becoming increasingly common, with mobile versions of public employee IDs, driver’s licenses, veteran IDs, and overseas citizen verification IDs already issued, and a mobile resident registration ID expected by year’s end. RaonSecure aims to expand this Korean mobile ID model (K-DID) internationally.
CEO Lee pointed out that “more than 1.3 billion people worldwide lack official IDs, limiting their access to healthcare, education, and cultural benefits, while increasing their vulnerability to crime,” stating that “an ID is a basic infrastructure for the pursuit of happiness.”
RaonSecure plans to approach global markets with strategies that include open sourcing, adopting international standards, and establishing an Open DID Foundation. “I believe Korea can become a successful model of digital transformation on a Web 3.0 foundation, and the day when K-DID leads the global market will come soon,” Lee said.
Kim Hyungjoong, Chair of the Korea Fintech Society, addressed the issue of privacy and transparency conflicts in developing "Responsible AI," highlighting zero-knowledge proofs as a solution. Zero-knowledge proofs allow verification without revealing specific information, striking a balance between transparency and privacy. Kim stated, “To achieve responsible AI, elements such as privacy, security, fairness, inclusiveness, reliability, transparency, and accountability are necessary, yet full disclosure can raise privacy issues. Investing in zero-knowledge proofs addresses this.”
Professor Doh Kyunghwa from Sogang University called for blockchain-based systems to manage individual characteristics to prevent deepfake-related crimes. “Posting videos and images on social media is a basic psychological freedom,” she noted, adding that “technology that stores and manages unique physical traits on blockchain, making it traceable and avoidable if criminals attempt to misuse images in deepfake-related crimes, needs to be developed.”
