Institutions' heavy buying lifts KOSPI; SK hynix jumps over 5%

South Korean institutions net-bought over KRW 1 trillion in a single session, lifting the KOSPI into positive territory intraday to touch 5,900 and sending SK hynix shares up more than 5%. The move signals local bargain-hunting after the recent chip selloff, offering short-term support, though the durability of the rebound hinges on foreign flows and memory fundamentals.
