Korea's exports rose 3.2 percent on-year in the first 10 days of November, data showed Wednesday.
 
Outbound shipments reached $18.24 billion in the Nov. 1 to 10 period, compared with $17.67 billion tallied a year earlier, according to data from the Korea Customs Service.
 
Export rose for the first time in 13 months in October. They advanced 5.1 percent on-year to $55 billion, driven by upbeat chip sales in the global market.
 
The government has expected exports to bottom out and gradually recover and vowed all-out efforts to support exports, the country's key economic growth engine.
