The Justice Ministry said yesterday it will allow more dual citizenships in an effort to draw foreign investors and “exceptional talent” in various areas such as the arts and science.

In its new policy report to President Lee Myung-bak, the ministry said it plans to lower the minimum requirement for foreign investors to get dual citizenships starting in 2009.

It will also allow limited dual nationality for those who show exceptional talent in the arts, science and other fields.

Those who have been given foreign nationality due to involuntary circumstances, such as adoption or birth abroad, will also be allowed dual nationality, the ministry said.  [Korea Herald]

I am wondering if this program is targeted towards overseas Koreans signing up for dual citizenship in order to get them to invest in the country of if this program will be directed towards anyone in general?  I also wonder if when someone gets dual citizenship, if the mandatory service requirement in the ROK Army still applies?
