How did Korea deal with the foreign currency crisis?
In November 1997, Korea was hit by a currency-cum-banking crisis that left it no option but to seek official assistance from the IMF. Thanks to the help of the IMF, other multilateral institutions, and many of its friends abroad, Korea was able to avoid the worst possible scenario, i.e., a sovereign default.
