Recent upward revisions to South Korea’s 2026 inflation outlook stem primarily from April’s 2.6% year-over-year CPI print—the highest since July 2024—driven by elevated global oil prices amid Middle East supply disruptions. The Bank of Korea now projects headline inflation in the mid- to upper-2% range for the year, exceeding its earlier 2.2% forecast, while the IMF has lifted its estimate to 2.5%. Core inflation remains anchored near 2.2%, and traders are weighing the extent of cost pass-through against government price-stabilization measures and potential monetary-policy tightening later in 2026. With outcomes clustered tightly between 2.1% and 2.6%, near-term data on oil prices and the May CPI release represent the key swing factors that could shift market-implied probabilities.
