Gasoline and diesel prices in Korea soared for the 12th consecutive week due to the strong dollar and a rise in the global crude prices. The weekly average price of gasoline stood at 1,671 won ($1.14) per liter (0.26 gallons) from Dec. 29 to Jan. 2, a 8.8 won increase from a week prior, according to data compiled by Opinet on Sunday.
