BOK Warns of K-Shaped Recovery with Sector Disparities

The head of the Bank of Korea, Rhee Chang-yong, said that the economy is expected to grow more this year than last year.

However, some parts of the economy will do much better than others, which might make people feel like the economy isn't doing well even if the numbers say it is.

He also mentioned that there are many uncertainties, like changes in global trade and the future of artificial intelligence.

The government is planning to help by creating a big fund and giving tax benefits to investors.

They also want to make the stock market fairer and help people with their debts.
