South Korea's inflation rate slightly eased to 2.8% year-on-year in October from 2.9% in September, according to government data. Despite this moderation, inflation remains above the Bank of Korea's 2% target by 0.8 percentage points. Persistent inflation, high global energy prices, and strong domestic economic activity are expected to prompt further interest rate hikes to maintain tight monetary policy.
