00:04한국의 economy just beat forecasts for a third straight quarter.
00:07chips and equipment investment carried the load.
00:10but households spent less for the first time since late 2022.
00:15It's Wednesday, October 28th.
00:17Let's get into one of Korea's top economic stories today.
00:21The Bank of Korea released its advanced GDP estimate on Tuesday.
00:26a semiconductor boom is powering the expansion.
00:29So far, it has not reached household wallets.
00:33Here's what the numbers show.
00:351%, that's Korea's third quarter growth from the previous quarter.
00:39It's more than triple the Bank of Korea's August forecast of 0.3%.
00:45Exports rose 2.3% on chips and machinery, while equipment investment climbed 4.1%.
00:52Private consumption fell 0.2%, hit by a stock market correction and an auto strike.
00:59So, what does this mean for Korea watchers?

01:07Here's what that actually means for you.
01:10The central bank calls the dip temporary.
01:13But for now, the gains are flowing to chipmakers, not households.
01:17Watch the Bank of Korea's November rate decision.
01:20Watch whether fourth quarter growth hits 4%, the bar for 4% this year.
01:26Watch whether spending rebounds after the auto strike.
