Round-up of South Korean financial markets:

** South Korean shares fell 1% on Monday as risk appetite dampened on renewed worries about China's COVID-19 outbreaks, while the country's weak exports data also weighed on the sentiment.

** The Korean won weakened by the most in six weeks, while the benchmark bond yield fell.

** The benchmark KOSPI fell 24.98 points, or 1.02%, to close at 2,419.50 - the lowest since Nov. 10.

** Fresh outbreaks of COVID-19 were seen across major Chinese cities like Beijing and Guangzhou, stoking concerns of lockdown measures weighing on the economy.

** "On top of that, South Korea's weak exports data put downward pressure on the local currency, an unfavourable condition for foreign inflows," said Lee Kyoung-min, an analyst at Daishin Securities.

** South Korea's exports for the first 20 days of November dropped 16.7% from the same period a year ago, dragged down by weak demand for chips and from China, with the trade balance set for an eighth straight monthly deficit.
