Recent Bank of Korea rate hikes to 3.00% in July and August 2026, narrowing the policy gap with the Federal Reserve's 3.50-3.75% range, have supported Korean won strength amid robust semiconductor exports, record current-account surpluses, and corporate dollar-selling from buybacks and repatriations. USD/KRW has fallen from above 1,550 in June to the low-1,380s by late August, driven by these domestic flows offsetting foreign equity outflows and broader dollar dynamics. Traders monitor upcoming U.S. data releases, Jackson Hole, month-end exporter activity, and any further BOK or Fed communications for signals on rate differentials and capital flows that could influence whether the pair tests key thresholds before year-end.
