The benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) rose 26.93 points, or 0.91 percent, to 2,985.05 points in the first 15 minutes of trading.

Leading chemical firm LG Chem added 2.81 percent, and rechargeable battery maker Samsung SDI jumped 3.62 percent. Top automaker Hyundai Motor climbed 0.88 percent.
Giant pharmaceutical firm Samsung Biologics went up 1.17 percent, while top internet portal operator Naver lost 0.4 percent.
The local currency was trading at 1,137.2 won against the US dollar, up 5.5 won from the previous session's close. (Yonhap)
