Research Evidence: The following findings from 1 research document reference this entity:

1. (Source: KFE staff directory — https://www.kfe.re.kr/staff.es?mid=a20103020000&orgnId=22406A0560) - KFE operates ITER Korea as the Korean Domestic Agency, managing nine procurement packages.
2. (Source: KFE ITER Korea page — https://www.kfe.re.kr/menu.es?mid=a20203020200) - The Korean fusion energy development roadmap has three stages: Stage 1 (2010s, KSTAR basic research), Stage 2 (2020s, ITER operation), Stage 3 (2030s, DEMO), with the goal of a Korean fusion power plant in the 2040s.
3. Confidence: LIKELY --- ## L7: South Korea's ITER Participation and Dual-Use Technology Implications ### Finding: South Korea is a full ITER partner and the Korean Domestic Agency (KFE/ITER Korea) has been one of the most reliable contributors — first to complete its superconducting conductor procurement, with 8 of 9 procurement packages concluded.
