South Korea's Inflation Rate Remain Low After COVID-19The outbreak has a significant impact within the economy, pressuring downward shift in price

The BOK (Bank of Korea) has recently mentioned that the new-coronavirus caused an unprecedented shock to the entire global economy, by putting a significant downward shift in price. Governor Lee Ju-you said that Korea's consumer prices fell 0.3% in May versus a year ago, after gaining 0.1% in April. Consumer price growth remained in the min-1 percent range in January before slowing down sharply after February, falling short of the BOK's inflation target of 2%. The BOK earlier expected consumer prices to rise 0.3% from the previous year, slower than the 0.4% on-year rise in 2019, the lowest inflation rate since the data began to compile in 1954. However, Lee predicted that inflation would recover at a slower pace or remain flat due to fundamental changes in overall economic activity by businesses and individuals even after the provision of COVID-19 pandemic subsidies.

The governor has said that the massive production setbacks caused by the pandemic are expected to push companies to accelerate automation to improve productivity, which is expected to cut labor costs, lowering inflation. He also mentioned that the economic shock from COVID-19 would change consumer behavior as well.

Based on historical experiences, households and businesses tended to reduce debt and increase savings after a large-scale virus outbreak or economic crisis due to pessimism about the future economy. After this massive virus outbreak, the term 'super-saver' might be present within the economy, with an extreme risk-averse attitude, especially if companies suffer massive layoffs and plunging sales in times of crisis. This attitude would slow down the recovery in spending and investment, which can have a downward pressure on inflation. However, there is no current deflation risk, due to measures to prevent the real economy from collapsing from the COVID-19 outbreak. Inflation will maintain after the pandemic ends.
