Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

The won opened at 1,338.5 per dollar on November 5, down 3.0 won from the prior session's close of 1,341.5, according to Bank of Korea ECOS data. The November 4 session traded between 1,336.1 and 1,347.2 before settling near the low end of this year's 1,323.1–1,555.8 closing range. Seoul Foreign Exchange Brokerage set the day's base rate at 1,340.7. The move matters because the won is holding near its 2024 strong-side extreme, keeping imported inflation and foreign capital flows in focus. Watch whether the pair breaks below the 1,336 support seen intraday or reverses toward the 1,347 session high.
