Trader consensus on Polymarket prices a modest probability for USD/KRW hitting elevated levels in 2026, driven primarily by persistent U.S.-South Korea interest rate differentials, with Fed funds at 4.25-4.50% versus Bank of Korea's 3.25% benchmark amid slowing Korean growth. Recent KRW depreciation to 1,480 (post-Yoon impeachment turmoil) reflects political risks amplifying USD strength, though Samsung-led semiconductor exports and potential BoK easing could cap upside. Key watches: January 17 BoK meeting, Q1 GDP releases, and Fed March cut odds (75% via CME FedWatch); sustained USD index above 105 boosts breach odds, while sub-1,400 stabilization tempers them amid historical volatility bands of 1,200-1,500.
