South Korea's Consumer Price Index (CPI) y/y reflects changes in the prices for a fixed basket of goods and services from the consumer perspective in the reported month compared to the same month of the previous year. The calculation includes spendings in all the major private consumption segments, such as food, clothing, payments, housing expenses, health, communication, etc. CPI growth can be seen as positive for the South Korean won quotes.
