Reaction on X: Replies are mostly skeptical of reading the drop as a verdict on Korea: one notes the index is still up 64% over the last year, another cites CXMT's next-generation server memory announcement and weakness in U.S. semiconductor stocks as immediate triggers alongside foreign net selling, and a third points out roughly 60% of KOSPI market cap is Samsung plus SK Hynix.
