2025年5月，韩国进口价格同比下跌5%，较上月2.6%的跌幅有所扩大。下跌的主要原因是全球油价下跌和韩元升值。原材料价格暴跌14.1%，较4月份12%的跌幅有所加速。中间产品在之前略有上涨后也下跌了2.4%，而消费品（2.1%对4.1%）和资本品（2.5%对5.2%）的价格增长放缓。按月计算，5月份进口价格下跌2.3%，延续了连续四个月的下跌趋势，与全球油价下跌相一致。

South Korea's import prices fell 5% year-on-year in May 2025, widening from a 2.6% decline in the previous month. The drop was primarily driven by lower global oil prices and the appreciation of the Korean won. Prices for raw materials plunged 14.1%, accelerating from a 12% fall in April. Intermediate goods also saw a decline of 2.4% after a slight increase previously, while price growth slowed for both consumer goods (2.1% vs. 4.1%) and capital goods (2.5% vs. 5.2%). On a monthly basis, import prices fell 2.3% in May, extending a streak of four consecutive monthly declines, in line with the global downturn in oil prices.

2025年5月，韩国出口价格同比下降2.4%，扭转了上个月0.4%的涨幅，结束了连续16个月的年度增长。下降的原因是制成品价格下跌，在4月份上涨0.4%后下跌2.4%，而农业、林业和海洋产品价格的增长从9.4%放缓至6.9%。出口价格在4月份下跌1.5%后，每月下跌3.4%，主要原因是韩元升值。经济放缓之际，外部压力越来越大，包括特朗普总统新宣布的美国高达49%的关税，增加了现有的10%的一揽子关税。尽管实施已经推迟了90天，但人们越来越担心这会对该国依赖出口的经济产生影响。与此同时，在6月3日提前举行的总统选举之前，政治不稳定正在升级，这是由尹锡悦总统在短暂宣布戒严令后被罢免引发的。

South Korea's export prices dropped 2.4% year-on-year in May 2025, reversing from a 0.4% increase the previous month and ending a 16-month streak of annual growth. The decline was driven by a downturn in manufactured goods prices, which fell 2.4% after rising 0.4% in April, while growth in agricultural, forestry, and marine product prices slowed to 6.9% from 9.4%. On a monthly basis, export prices fell 3.4%, following a 1.5% drop in April, largely due to the Korean won’s appreciation. The slowdown comes amid growing external pressure, including newly announced US tariffs of up to 49% by President Trump, adding to an existing 10% blanket duty. Although implementation has been delayed by 90 days, fears are mounting over the impact on the country’s export-dependent economy. At the same time, political instability is escalating ahead of the June 3 snap presidential election, triggered by the ouster of President Yoon Suk Yeol after his brief declaration of martial law.
