South Korea's export and import prices fell for the first time in five months in June.
The Bank of Korea says the export price index came to 100-point-nine-five, down more than two percent from May due to the stronger local currency.
The won-dollar exchange rate rose zero-point-six percent on-month to 1,176 won against the greenback.
Import prices, meanwhile, dropped more than three percent on-month in June mainly due to lower global oil prices.
