Abstract

In the second half of 2024 (H2 2024), despite macroeconomic and geopoliticaluncertainties and an intensifying protectionist sentiment worldwide,Korea’s 13 flagship industries are expected to continue seeing high exportgrowth driven by strong global IT demand and an uptick in domestic andinternational investment, with improvements also anticipated in domesticdemand and production. Overall, robust growth in several IT subsectors isexpected, including semiconductors, information and communication devices(ICT), and biotech, as well as in the shipbuilding industry. The automotiveindustry should continue flying high, while growth in other major segments such as petrochemicals and steel looks to remain flat. The slope of the declinein the battery industry (for which indicators show signs of contraction) shouldtaper off in the second half of the year.
