South Korea's KOSPI index was up 1.00% intraday.

South Korea's Lee outlined next-year budget plans in a parliamentary address, saying investment in AI and other future growth drivers will be expanded. The government will allocate 21.3 tln won to three ‘super projects’ — semiconductors, physical AI and AI data centers — roughly double this year’s scale. It will invest 13.8 tln won across ten next‑generation strategic technology areas and raise R&D spending by 4 tln won focused on seven seed projects, taking total R&D funding to a record 39.5 tln won. Lee also said the budget accelerates the energy transition, including expanded village-level solar projects that generate local revenue and higher electric-vehicle subsidies.
