Recent strength in the U.S. dollar, supported by rising Treasury yields and expectations that the Federal Reserve will maintain a restrictive policy stance longer amid persistent inflation, has driven USD/KRW higher to around 1,500 as of May 19, 2026. This marks an 8% depreciation of the won over the past year, fueled by widening interest-rate differentials, robust Korean resident demand for overseas equities, and safe-haven flows amid Middle East tensions and higher oil prices. Bank of Korea interventions and joint statements with the finance ministry in late 2025 temporarily supported the won, yet structural capital outflows continue to exert upward pressure on the pair. Traders are monitoring upcoming U.S. CPI releases, FOMC communications, and Korean export data for shifts in monetary-policy expectations that could alter the path toward year-end levels.
