On Friday, the won's value against the greenback touched 1,486.7 won during intraday trading. It was the first time the won-dollar exchange rate had hit the 1,480 won bar in nearly 16 years since reaching 1,488.5 won on March 16, 2009, amid the global financial crisis.

Under such circumstances, consumer price growth, which in the past three months has stabilized at the 1 percent range, could spike -- putting pressure on the Bank of Korea to cut its policy rate, which currently stands at 3 percent. While the central bank projected consumer prices to rise by 2 percent next year, the strong dollar could agitate the growth.
