  "summary": "The KOSPI index struggled to regain its footing on Monday, failing to surpass the 5,000 mark after a more than 11 percent plunge last week. The benchmark index opened at 5,043.20, down 0.5 percent from the previous close, reflecting the volatility that has gripped the market since concerns over tighter U.S. AI regulation affected semiconductor stocks following the Democrats' midterm election victory. Despite institutional buying and a modest rebound in semiconductor heavyweights, the index eventually closed at 5,018.85, down 0.81 percent.",
