Game industry calls for tax credit on development costs
South Korea\'s game industry called for a tax credit on game production costs, arguing that film and webtoons receive such benefits while games do not. At a policy forum at the National Assembly, speakers cited low use of existing R&D tax credits by game firms and presented estimates of investment and job gains from a new credit. The finance ministry warned of possible duplicate deductions, while the culture ministry said actual uptake is minimal.
