The benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) and currency exchange rates display on a digital board at the Hana Bank headquarters dealing room in Seoul, South Korea, on January 22, 2026. The KOSPI makes financial history by breaching the psychological 5,000-point threshold for the first time since the index's inception 46 years ago, hitting an intraday high of 5,019.54. The index pares some gains to close at 4,952.53, up 42.60 points, or 0.87 percent, from the previous session, while the tech-heavy KOSDAQ index gains 19.06 points, or 2.0 percent, to finish at 970.35. Analysts attribute the rally to optimism over global trade and the Lee Jae Myung administration's capital market support policies, marking a rapid ascent from the 4,000-point mark reached just three months prior.
