[From NBC](https://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/trump-says-hiking-tariffs-south-korean-goods-25-rcna256028):
President Donald Trump said Monday that he was hiking tariffs on imports from South Korea to 25% from 15%, complaining that the nation's legislature wasn't "living up" to a trade deal that was struck last year.
"Because the Korean Legislature hasn't enacted our Historic Trade Agreement, which is their prerogative, I am hereby increasing South Korean TARIFFS on Autos, Lumber, Pharma, and all other Reciprocal TARIFFS, from 15% to 25%," Trump wrote in a social media post.
Trump's announcement comes as he also contends with blowback from voters on affordability and the cost of living. His tariffs have contributed to stubborn price inflation, and recent research says consumers have shouldered nearly all of costs from the duties.
South Korea is an important trading partner for the United States, ranking among the top 10 sources of imports. Nearly $150 billion worth of goods is imported every year from South Korea to the U.S. by companies and consumers.
In July, Trump reached what he called a trade deal with South Korea's president. However, the two sides then remained deadlocked for months over an investment pledge that the U.S. pushed for.
Then in October, during Trump's Asia trip, he and South Korean President Lee Jae Myung finalized that deal, which included a promise of investing $350 billion in the U.S.
Weeks later, in November, the White House and South Korean government released a "fact sheet" that was set to put the deal in motion.
