Of course, it will probably only be for Koreans, but who knows?

Unless and until they stop using Active X, Internet banking here is a security risk.

What is the problem with ActiveX, and how do I know if my bank is using it?

Pretty much every Korean site uses Active X.

So many noted security holes in it that M$ stopped incorporating it into their OS, and they no longer support it. Almost every website in Korea still uses it, though. It's simply poor (and lazy) site coding to continue to use it. Macs don't use ActiveX, so there are quite a few sites I can't use fully at home.
