Recent Bank of Korea rate hikes to 3.00% in August 2026, narrowing the policy differential with the Federal Reserve's 3.50-3.75% range to 50-75 basis points, have supported KRW strength alongside robust semiconductor export flows and corporate dollar sales from SK Hynix ADR proceeds. USD/KRW has fallen from peaks near 1,560 in July to the 1,370-1,380 area, reflecting a large current-account surplus, foreign equity inflows, and exporter repatriations. Traders price in consolidation risks near current levels or modest further appreciation into year-end, contingent on sustained chip demand, inflation trends near 2.7%, and any Fed easing signals that could compress Treasury yields and widen the won's carry appeal.
