South Korean stocks fell slightly on Monday. The losses came on the back of declines on Wall Street as news of underwhelming earnings overshadowed the release of stable second-quarter U.S. gross domestic product data.

The benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index(KOSPI) ended point-06 percent lower after losing one-point-48 points to close the day at two-thousand-293-point-51. 

The tech-heavy KOSDAQ also fell, losing four-point-18-points, or point-54 percent. It closed the day at 769-point-80. 

On the foreign exchange, the local currency weakened two-point-one won against the dollar, ending the session at one-thousand-120-point-two won.
