This work explores the compliance issues arising from the structural design of digital trade agreements, using Korea's KSDPA as a case study.
Analyzed the Korea-Singapore Digital Partnership Agreement (KSDPA) to identify compliance gaps.
Conducted comparative analysis with agreements from the EU, India, and Singapore.
Proposed structural remedies to address identified compliance failures.
Identified three distinct compliance tensions between KSDPA obligations and Korean laws.
Demonstrated that these compliance failures are inherent to the agreement type, not specific jurisdictions.
Outlined three institutional remedies: compliance auditing, treaty cooperation clauses, and regulatory reviews.
