Pipes

• reconstructed · NEC political funds

  Financial support

  Support associations, party transfers, public subsidy. Corporate and union gifts are banned. Names above 3 million won print only as the NEC already published them.

• banned / none

  Lobbying support

  Korea has no LDA-style lobby register. Corporate gifts are banned, so we do not invent a client list. This cell is a structural hole.

• reconstructed · Political Funds Act subsidy

  Public subsidy

  The public subsidy sits inside the support-association pipe. It is not a second influence score.

  Defense procurement

  Defense Acquisition Program Administration awards are a later gate. We do not invent contractors.

• reconstructed

  Assets

  Asset totals print as sourced only where a public ethics filing exists. The rest are reconstructed or empty.

• hole · NTS public-interest corps

  Related entities

  National Tax Service public-interest filings and related entities are a later gate. We did not copy 990s in. We do not invent orgs.

Primary desks

Public filings. Follow the register. Names print only where the filing already names them.

• NEC

  Political-funds intake and spend. Names only where the register prints them. We do not invent them here.

• NTS public-interest

  Public-interest corporation filings. Related orgs and insider deals are a later gate.

How the pipes work

Methods are sequences on public filings. Names a register already printed — PAC, corporation, contractor, 990 related org — go on the page. We do not store a home address. Third-party reporting is not a corpus.

• hole · Public filing

  Public-interest filing first

  The press release is not the start. NTS public-interest filings, related orgs, insider deals. We do not invent orgs.

• hole · Public filing

  Start with the wire

  Press release is not the start. Amount, date, and who signed. Then the filing.

  Private inurement

  A tax-exempt org’s net earnings cannot benefit an insider — board, officer, key employee. For-profit using the nonprofit name without fair-market pay is a flag. We do not score it until a 990 line exists.

Financial support

Mix is a category share. PAC and connected-organization names print as the FEC filed them. Lobbying on a member row is an LD-203 honoree filing — not proof that a client lobbied that office.
