The KRW/USD pair shows how many US dollars one South Korean won can buy, reflecting Korea's export-driven economy against the world's primary reserve currency.
Each row combines a UTC date, a rate and the change from the previous available observation. A positive change means the base currency buys more of the quote currency than on the previous available date.
Days without a quotation are not interpolated: the series keeps only observations that were actually received.
Compare several periods before a trip, an international transfer or a foreign-currency invoice. The average, minimum and maximum provide a quick reference, while the table enables a date-by-date check.

The KRW/USD exchange rate measures the value of the South Korean won against the US dollar, indicating how many US dollars are needed to purchase one won. This pair is widely used by traders, importers, and exporters dealing with South Korea's trade-dependent economy. When the won appreciates against the dollar, it means the won strengthens, making Korean exports more expensive and imports cheaper.
The Bank of Korea and the Federal Reserve set monetary policies that influence interest rate differentials, inflation, and economic growth. South Korea's economy is heavily reliant on exports of semiconductors, automobiles, and ships, making the won sensitive to global trade cycles and commodity prices. Capital flows, risk sentiment, and geopolitical tensions in the region also affect the pair. The US dollar's status as a safe-haven currency often leads to won depreciation during global risk-off events.
Over the past several years, the KRW/USD pair has experienced periods of volatility driven by shifts in global trade policy, changes in interest rate expectations, and economic cycles. The won has generally trended weaker against the dollar during times of global uncertainty, while periods of strong export demand and favorable trade balances have supported the won. The pair remains influenced by the relative health of the US and South Korean economies, with no single direction guaranteed.
