2025年10月,韩国消费者价格同比上涨2.4%,超过了市场预期的2.1%的涨幅,因为韩元走弱推高了能源和食品成本,加强了央行保持利率的理由。该指数从9月份的2.1%开始加速,达到2024年7月以来的最高水平。价格上涨最为显著的是杂项商品和服务(4.3%)、食品和非酒精饮料(3.5%)、运输(3.4%)、餐馆和酒店(3.2%)以及家具、家用设备和日常维护(2.2%)。这些数据突显了政策制定者在10月份连续第三个月保持利率不变后的谨慎立场,在支持增长与遏制通胀预期之间取得了平衡。按月计算,消费者价格指数上涨0.3%,较9月份的0.5%有所放缓,但超过了0%的预测。
 South Korea’s consumer prices rose 2.4% year-on-year in October 2025, surpassing market expectations of a 2.1% gain as a weaker won pushed up energy and food costs, strengthening the case for a rate hold by the central bank. The reading accelerated from September’s 2.1% and marked the highest level since July 2024. Price increases were most notable for miscellaneous goods & services (4.3%), food & non-alcoholic beverages (3.5%), transport (3.4%), restaurants & hotels (3.2%), and furnishings, household equipment & routine maintenance (2.2%). The data underscores policymakers’ cautious stance after keeping rates unchanged for a third consecutive month in October, balancing growth support with efforts to contain inflation expectations. On a monthly basis, consumer prices rose 0.3%, moderating from a 0.5% increase in September but exceeding the forecast of 0%.
