KRW to USD 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent South Korean won → dollar forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest South Korean won to US dollar performance and trends.

 

Recent forecasts suggest a mixed outlook for the KRW to USD exchange rate. Analysts note that the U.S. dollar has strengthened due to safe-haven flows and reduced expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, influenced by trade deal announcements from the Trump administration. While positive sentiment surrounds these trade discussions, any investor disappointment regarding their scope could weaken the dollar's position in the near term.

On the other hand, the South Korean won is under pressure from both geopolitical and domestic factors. The imposition of a 25% tariff on South Korean goods has added strain amidst the ongoing trade tensions initiated by the U.S. Furthermore, the recent political crisis brought on by President Yoon Suk Yeol's brief imposition of martial law has heightened concerns about South Korea’s political stability and has the potential to affect the sovereign credit rating. Although the won rebounded following the parliamentary resolution lifting martial law, volatility remains likely due to ongoing political uncertainties.

Market data indicates that the KRW to USD exchange rate is currently at 14-day lows near 0.000725, slightly above its 3-month average of 0.000721. The KRW has demonstrated relative stability within a moderate 6.3% trading range. However, with the backdrop of faltering emerging-market confidence due to U.S. tariff policies, the won may face continued challenges ahead.

Looking forward, currency forecasters suggest that the direction of the KRW will largely hinge on international developments, particularly U.S. monetary policies and the impact of U.S.-South Korea trade relations. As the dollar retains its status as a safe-haven currency amidst global uncertainties, South Korea's political landscape and economic response to external pressures will be critical in shaping future exchange rate movements.
