CoinDesk's 'Bank of Korea’s new governor signals CBDC and bank token push, skips stablecoins in key address' directly supports the core of the claim that Shin Hyun-song pledged a faster push on CBDC and deposit tokens. The fetched X post 'https://x.com/TheBlockCo/status/2046482433843814740' independently matches that characterization. However, this run did not obtain a Bank of Korea primary statement or speech transcript confirming the narrower details that 'Phase 2 of Project Han River will broaden CBDC and deposit token use' and specifically 'support the Korean won’s role in cross-border digital payments.' Because the broad thrust is corroborated but some exact phrasing remains unverified, the claim is best assessed as likely true rather than fully confirmed.
