After the export results were released in February,

After the export results were released in February, numerous media outlets included phrases such as "66% surge in semiconductor exports" and "the best in 76 months" in the title or content of the article.

I think many people think semiconductor exports hit an all-time high in February this year because of this repeated article. (My comment also asked me if it was the best ever…)

This is the exact content.

The growth rate of semiconductor exports compared to the same period last year is the highest in 76 months.

Compared to semiconductor exports in February last year, semiconductor exports in February this year increased by 66%, making it difficult to find a precedent for such a growth rate.

So how much semiconductor exports in February recorded the highest growth rate in 76 months?

That's 9.95 billion dollars.

You're not sure if this is a lot or a lot, right?

In the last 15 months of the Moon Jae In government, monthly semiconductor exports have always been more than $10 billion.

$10 billion is the lower limit of monthly semiconductor exports.

2023 was the year when Yoon Suk Yeol made an unprecedented record in semiconductors.

In particular, exports of $5.96 billion semiconductors in February 2023 were the worst to fall below $6 billion for the first time in 60 months since December 2017.

It was a record of how much Yoon Suk Yeol could ruin semiconductors.

The second article attached is Hankyoreh's report on the situation at the time.

The highest growth rate in 76 months in February this year was only a 66% increase from that in February last year, and it is still short of the $10 billion-plus monthly exports that the Moon Jae In government took for granted.

Nevertheless, the media is selling the same drugs that our semiconductor exports are at an all-time high.
Of course, it's a general election atmosphere.
I'm casting a spell because the economy is getting better.

Of course, it is true that exports of semiconductors are increasing due to the recovery of the IT economy.
Then our exports should increase at a similar rate as the market recovers.

But that's not the case.
The content is long, and this is the subject of my next article, so I'll explain this through the article.

Anyway, just remember that the best in 76 months is not the amount of exports, but the growth rate compared to February last year when it completely went bust.

The Yoon Suk Yeol against the Yoon Suk Yeol has recovered a little, but the Yoon Suk Yeol against the Moon Jae In is still in a state of depression.
