南韓擴大間諜罪適用範圍至所有外國,最高刑期30年

Quick Look

南韓13日正式擴大刑法間諜罪適用範圍,過去僅針對北韓等敵對國家的規定如今擴及所有外國,涉及為外國竊取、蒐集及提供國家機密等行為皆可能面臨間諜罪追訴,最高可判30年徒刑。此舉旨在應對半導體等關鍵科技外洩風險,尤其針對中國被視為主要威脅來源。2025年南韓發現33起技術外洩案件,超過一半涉及中國,半導體產業遭鎖定最多。國內同時有取消中國公民免簽入境的請願連署突破5萬人,但該請願與間諜罪修法無直接因果關係。

Why It Matters

南韓刑法中的間諜罪過去主要適用於涉及北韓的案件,若涉及其他國家則需依其他法律追訴。近年南韓半導體產業面臨技術外洩風險,2025年發現33起對外技術外洩案件,超過一半涉及中國,半導體為最受鎖定產業。

南韓13日正式擴大刑法「間諜罪」適用範圍,過去主要針對北韓等敵對國家的規定,如今擴及所有外國,涉及為外國竊取、蒐集及提供國家機密等行為,都可能面臨間諜罪追訴。新法上路之際,南韓正面對半導體等關鍵科技外洩風險,其中中國被視為主要威脅來源之一。

《路透》報導,這項修法旨在強化南韓對半導體等戰略科技的保護。過去南韓刑法中的間諜罪主要處理涉及北韓的案件,若有人將技術或其他資訊提供給北韓以外的國家,部分案件只能依其他法律追訴;新法則把間諜罪適用範圍擴大至所有外國。

請繼續往下閱讀...

70多年首度大改 最高可判30年

《金融時報》報導,這是南韓70多年來首次大幅修改間諜罪規定,新法將可能危及國家安全的非公開經濟、科學及科技資訊納入保護範圍;竊取國家機密並提供給外國勢力者,最高可被判處30年徒刑。

這項修法與南韓近年接連發生的科技外洩案件有關。南韓國家警察廳統計,2025年共發現33起技術外洩至海外的案件,其中超過一半涉及中國;半導體是遭鎖定最多的產業。案件範圍也不只涵蓋三星電子與SK海力士等大型企業,86%的技術外洩案件涉及中小企業。

南韓面對的壓力也來自中國記憶體產業快速追趕。《金融時報》指出,中國記憶體製造商長鑫存儲(CXMT)2026年上半年營收年增近9倍,全球DRAM營收占比也從第1季的7.6%升至第2季的9.5%;三星與SK海力士同期占比分別為39.4%與24.9%。

南韓擴大間諜罪之際,國內對中國相關風險的討論也延伸至入境管理。就在前一天,要求取消中國公民免簽入境的國會請願連署已突破5萬人,另要求強化外國人犯罪管理及重大犯罪外國人的再入境管制。不過,這項請願與間諜罪修法並非同一政策,兩者目前也沒有直接因果關係。

Political worker Zhou Xuan analyzed: The blue camp chicks lacked confidence in the hen Jiang Wanan and turned to attack each other.

DPP Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang's outdoor event attracted a large number of supporters and formed an "ocean current", but KMT city councilors questioned that most of the participants were working-study students from out of town. Political worker Zhou Xuan believes that the Blue Camp Chicken's use of words such as "cockroaches and mice" to attack DPP supporters actually reflects their lack of confidence in Jiang Wanan, the hen, and they can only compete for votes internally. He predicts that there will be more passionate performances.

Candidates for Taitung County Mayor clash over music policy, Chen Ying promotes original music base, Wu Xiuhua questions financial resources and feasibility

Taitung "East!" "Take Me Away" concerts were held for two consecutive nights. Chen Ying and Wu Xiuhua, candidates for county mayor from the blue and green parties, expressed their political opinions on music policy. Chen Ying advocated that the county government should take the lead in building an original music base, referring to the popular music center models of Taipei and Kaohsiung, which would be built in cooperation between the central and local governments and operated by an administrative legal person. Wu Xiuhua affirmed the direction but questioned the funding sources, base location, operating costs and administrative legal person planning, emphasizing that Taitung needs to find its own path instead of copying the Taipei or Kaohsiung model.
