Korea's Inflation Stays High in September
South Korea's inflation rate remained high in September, recording an increase of 2.9% compared to the previous year, slightly slower than August's 3.1%.

This supports the Central Bank's approach of monetary tightening, following interest rate hikes to 3% in July and August to counter inflationary pressures and rising real estate prices.
