Rfv-sense: "Synonym of KCIA". I don't find much information on Google search about the alleged sense. Neither a search within Google Books supports that sense. In fact I think the disbanded intelligence agency is more likely to be referred as the KCIA instead of merely CIA. Like to ask if there are any further supporting quotes?廣九直通車 (talk) 13:51, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"The Korean CIA" is common. That falls under "initialism of Central Intelligence Agency" of course, though it has the snag that the phrase does not actually refer to the Wiki entry that's linked (Central Intelligence Agency). It's probably preferable to rework sense 1 somehow than have a distinct sense either way. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 13:59, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
