The USD/KRW exchange rate has surged to levels near 1,560 in early June 2026, its weakest since March 2009, driven primarily by widening U.S.-Korea interest rate differentials, sustained capital outflows from Korean residents investing overseas (exceeding the current account surplus), and elevated global risk aversion amid Middle East tensions. The Bank of Korea held its policy rate at 2.5% in April, citing FX volatility and inflation risks, while U.S. Fed communications and potential leadership shifts continue to influence dollar strength. Traders monitor upcoming FOMC and BOK meetings, U.S. and Korean inflation releases, and equity market performance for further signals on whether these dynamics sustain depreciation pressure through year-end.
