KOSPI Falls Over 3% as SK Hynix and Kioxia Plunge 7%

The KOSPI fell more than 3% while SK Hynix and Japan's Kioxia both dropped about 7%, reflecting concentrated selling across memory names. Near term, the index-level decline and memory-sector correlation raise volatility and weigh on the stock, though the impact may be limited if the move proves sentiment-driven rather than fundamental.
