In 2023, South Korea ranked 22nd out of 38 OECD countries in the corruption perceptions index (CPI), the same rank as in the previous two years. South Korea's corruption perception index score was 63 out of 100 points. The index shows the perceived level of corruption in the public sector in 180 countries and territories. South Korea has improved steadily in recent years, partly due to the government's anti-corruption efforts. Nevertheless, corruption in business and the public sector remains a major problem in this society.
