KOSPI slips below 8,000 on July 2, triggering a 5-minute program-trading halt

AI Market Summary
KOSPI's drop below 8,000 triggered a KRX sell-side sidecar, halting program trading for five minutes and underscoring acute, opening-bell liquidity stress. The move was driven by heavy semiconductor selling, amplifying risk-off sentiment in Korean equities and potentially tightening regional risk appetite. While mechanical, the circuit-breaker highlights elevated short-term volatility and fragile market depth.
