The Korean Won (KRW) to Australian Dollar (AUD) exchange rate stood at 0.00095177 on March 13, 2026, marking a significant +0.522% increase for the day. This upward movement signifies that the KRW strengthened against the AUD, or conversely, the AUD weakened against the KRW, meaning Australians now need more KRW to purchase one AUD, or conversely, it takes fewer KRW to buy one AUD. The daily move was predominantly driven by the Australian Dollar, accounting for an 85% attribution, with the South Korean Won contributing only 15%. This suggests that negative sentiment or data concerning the Australian economy had a far greater impact on the pair's movement than any concurrent factors in South Korea.

Examining the mid/long-term picture, the trend has been decidedly downward for the KRW/AUD pair. Over the last six months, the rate has fallen by -12.03%, and over the past year, it has declined by -13.03%. This persistent decline indicates a prolonged period where the AUD has been structurally stronger relative to the KRW over these longer horizons, despite the single-day reversal. The range of movement suggests relatively tight price action, with the 1-year maximum at 0.0011 AUD and the minimum at 0.0009 AUD.

Volatility and trend stability metrics offer further insight. Over the past week, the market demonstrated moderate stability with a low Efficiency (Choppiness) of 0.48, suggesting some minor directionless price action mixed with the recent upward move. The 6-month efficiency of 0.26 indicates a much more established, albeit falling, trend during that period. For the full year, the efficiency dropped further to 0.13, pointing to a strong, relatively consistent downtrend in the pair's value over the past 12 months. The annual Volatility (SD) of 0.59% is the highest, suggesting the largest daily price swings have occurred over the longer term, likely reflecting uncertainty around differing monetary policy stances or shifts in interest rate differentials between the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and the Bank of Korea. A recent factor influencing the AUD weakness could be the release of weaker-than-expected Australian employment figures or a dovish statement from the RBA regarding future inflation targets.
