February exports rise on the back of strong semiconductor sales

2월 수출 15개월만에 플러스 전환

South Korea's exports have increased for the first time in over a year.
The trade ministry said Sunday that the country's outbound shipments rose four-point-five percent on-year in February,... marking the first time exports grew in fifteen months.
This comes on the back of stronger semiconductor sales,... which have seen a rise in global demand as well as unit prices for DRAM memory chips.
Also, boosting the figures may have been more working days last month compared to 2019 when the Lunar New Year holiday fell in February.
