The Korea Exchange will consider extending trading hours to 12 hours.

The proposal suggests establishing pre-market and after-market trading sessions, extending trading hours to 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, or 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. The Korea Exchange's current normal trading hours are 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, and the after-market session is 3:40 PM to 6:00 PM.
