The head of Korea's central bank will attend three major policy meetings set to take place in Japan later in the week, the Bank of Korea (BOK) said Wednesday.

BOK Gov. Lee Ju-yeol plans to participate in the 20th ASEAN-plus-three finance ministers and central bank chiefs meeting Friday, the 50th ADB annual gathering Saturday and the BIS meeting from Sunday to Monday, the bank said.
