The South Korean won weakened to around 1,500 per dollar on Friday, reversing gains from the previous session. Investors continued to weigh South Korea’s slowing domestic economy and persistent capital outflows despite improving global risk sentiment tied to easing Middle East tensions. Market optimism strengthened after reports indicated that the United States and Iran were moving toward extending their ceasefire arrangement for 60 days while resuming negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear program. Oil prices also eased, with Brent crude falling about 0.4% to near $93 per barrel. At the same time, the US dollar weakened broadly against major developed-market currencies, while Treasury yields declined across the curve during the previous session. Markets also monitored the government’s new reshoring initiative aimed at encouraging overseas Korean firms to return home through broader incentives and more flexible subsidy support for strategic industries.
