Korea's exports turned to an increase in 15 months, even after the bad news from Corona Virus Infection-19 (Corona 19).

The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy said on February 1 that exports were $ 4.26 billion, up 4.5 percent from the same month last year.

Imports rose 1.4 percent to $ 37.15 billion and the trade balance surplused $ 4.12 billion.

Exports in February turned to an increase due to the increase in the number of working days due to the absence of a Lunar New Year holiday.

Daily exports, excluding working days, were $ 1.83 billion, down 11.7% from the same period last year.
