Sourcing & confidence disclaimer

Every claim on this profile comes from the sources cited on it. Nothing has been added or inferred.

Kim Ung Sun is profiled here as the Russia-based DPRK consular official the Treasury says worked with Vitaliy Andreyev to move nearly $600,000 of Chinyong's IT-worker income from cryptocurrency into cash. OFAC prints the Hangul.

The confidence level of 'confirmed' reflects that this individual is named on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals list; a sanctions designation is an administrative action by the Treasury and not a criminal charge, and nothing here states that any court has found anything.
