South Korea's producer prices in July increased for second consecutive month, led by a rise in global oil prices.

But compared to a year earlier, the figure has been falling for five straight months.
Prices of agricultural goods went up 3-point-4 percent on-month, due to heavy rain...and the trend is projected to continue throughout August.
Industrial goods prices increased point-four percent... but prices of power and gas dropped four-point-one percent.
