Consumer confidence in South Korea reached a 19-month high in April, with an increasing number of people expecting their living standards to be higher in six months' time than now, a government survey said Wednesday.
Having declined for the past two months, the consumer sentiment index rebounded from 94.4 in March to 99.9, the highest mark since the 103.9 tallied in September 2002, the National Statistical Office (NSO) said.
