Ask what Korea is talking about.

On Nov. 6, the KOSPI plunged more than 8% in early trade, prompting the Korea Exchange to activate a circuit breaker and halt trading at 9:03 a.m. for 20 minutes, amid a tech sell-off and foreign selling intensified by U.S. mega-cap tech losses. The index fell below 5,000, with the KOSDAQ also down 5-6%, following a previous day's plunge below 5,400 on 'Blue Wave' fears over AI and tech regulations. Yonhap reports the rout came after U.S. midterm elections, with Business Korea citing extreme panic from the New York market's cold wave. Korean media outlets like KBS World, Yonhap, and Korea Times report the market turmoil, while Business Korea notes the historic nature of the decline.
