Year-Round Application System

Under the changed arrangement, Korean software and IT companies seeking to expand into the United States can submit applications at any time during the year rather than waiting for periodic recruitment rounds, according to information associated with the claim.

The support targets companies pursuing market entry in the US, one of the largest destinations for Korean software firms looking to expand overseas. Companies interested in the program apply through KOSA.

What Remains Unclear

Details such as eligibility criteria, the scope of assistance provided, and selection timelines were not specified in the available information, and it remains unconfirmed whether individual applicants face any limits on when they can receive support after applying.

For Korean startups and small and mid-sized software companies, a rolling application process could reduce waiting times compared with the fixed recruitment rounds that previously governed entry into such programs.

The claim that KOSA is taking applications year-round for its US market entry support is largely accurate based on the available information, though the full program details remain to be seen — a finding that is Mostly True.

Verdict: Mostly True
