Capital markets in South Korea are successfully attracting foreign investors once again following a turbulent period in March. This renewed interest is driven by several factors, including easing geopolitical tensions involving Iran, a booming global market for artificial intelligence (AI) memory technology, and ongoing corporate governance reforms in Seoul. The benchmark KB RISE KOSPI ETF has managed to recover nearly all the losses from its 19% drop last month, regaining the momentum that made it one of the world's top-performing major stock indices last year.
