South Korea's consumer prices grew at the slowest pace in four months in August due in part to the stabilization of farming goods prices, a government report showed Tuesday.
The country's consumer price index rose 1.4 percent last month from a year earlier, decelerating from July's 1.6 percent gain. This marked the slowest growth pace since April when consumer prices rose 1.5 percent.
