South Korea's Oct. consumer prices rise 2.8% for second month

South Korea's consumer prices rose 2.8 percent in October from a year earlier, data showed Tuesday, as agricultural product prices continued to decline despite energy costs remaining elevated. The figure marks the second consecutive month that inflation has remained in the 2 percent range. Korea Times reports that the rise was driven by increases in processed foods and petroleum products, while agricultural prices fell.
