Credit card spending in Japanese cities South Korea Summer 2019
South Korean credit card spendings in Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, and Okinawa fell from 16.4 billion South Korean won in the forth week of June to around 13.3 billion won in the forth week of July 2019, a decrease of around 19 percent within a month. Overall South Korean credit card spending on Japanese products halved within the same period. The decrease is caused by the trade spat between the two countries and the growing anti-Japanese sentiment.
