"Domestic demand cannot be survived without an adequate level of wage increase," Finance Minister Choi Kyung-hwan said at a forum held in Seoul, citing the United States and Japan, where leaders made similar claims.

Last year's record-low increase came as the youth jobless rate hit a record high of 9 percent. In 2014, the number of those employed posted the highest increase in 12 years, but the growth was led by those in their 50s and 60s.
About one fifth of the youths employed last year got an irregular job, of which contract mature in less than a year, boosting worries about job insecurity.

Concerns that the South Korean economy may fall into deflation escalated as recent economic indicators indicated a stagnant economy amid low headline inflation.
The country's consumer price inflation was 0.5 percent in February from a year earlier, staying below 1 percent for three months in a row. The figure marked the lowest in about 16 years, statistical agency data showed Tuesday.
The government said it was mainly attributable to cheaper crude oil Cheap Air Max 90 , which pulled down petroleum product prices by 24.3 percent in February from a year ago.

Finance Minister Choi said that he"is much worried about deflation woes"caused by the prolonged low headline inflation, but the minister said the South Korean economy has yet to fall into deflation.
Choi stressed the need for closely monitoring the prolongation of low inflation as it may result in the weakening of sentiment among economic agents such as households and companies.

The prolonged disinflation tends to delay consumption expenditure on expectations that consumer prices may fall further. It would result in a stagnant economy, especially in the domestic market Cheap Air Max Wholesale , possibly leading to deflation, or the vicious circle of consumer price falls and economic slowdown.
Growing concerns about deflation may put more pressure on the Bank of Korea (BOK) to cut interest rates further. The BOK lowered its policy rate in August and October last year to a record low of 2 percent.
