South Korean inflation at 22-month low in June SEOUL -- South Korea's inflation rate was the lowest for 22 months in June, figures showed Wednesday, easing fears that price rises could hamper an economic recovery bolstered by stimulus spending.

The June figure was the slowest annual growth since August 2007. |
