Does NOT	Doesn't itself mean organic — pair with an organic mark for the full picture.	PGS-based — the inspection model is community peer-review rather than third-party. Strong for domestic markets, less recognised by the EU/USA than third-party schemes.	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.	Cosmetics and textiles are covered under separate Korean schemes, not this mark.
