Daegu, Busan, and Daejeon were areas where gasoline prices were around 1,200 won per ℓ, and 1,300 won per other area.

International oil prices, which rose slightly last week, fell again.

The price of Dubai oil, which is the basis of crude oil imported by Korea, was $ 20.8 per barrel, down $ 3.3 from the previous week.

The price of Dubai oil, which was $ 64.3 a barrel in January, fell to the $ 20 level this week after the $ 30 line fell in the third week of March due to a decrease in demand resulting from the Corona 19 crisis and the so-called 'subtraction conflict' between Russia and Saudi Arabia. Lost.

"The international oil price fell due to the increase in US crude oil inventory and the downward revision of the world oil demand outlook by the International Energy Agency and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries."
