2. Operating Model
Woori Bank’s Japan site identifies the Japan branch route and branch information. The branch is not a Japanese domestic bank subsidiary; it is a foreign-bank branch that connects Korean and Japan customers, remittance flows, deposits, and business banking activity through Woori’s home-market network.
The FSA list is the primary license source, while JBA’s bank database provides the Japan banking-code / contact context for public users.
