STORYLINE:
South Korea's currency tumbled on Thursday after U.S. Federal Reserve's rate hike led to a strong U.S. dollar.
The won/dollar exchange rate finished at 1,409.7 won per dollar, up 15.5 won from the previous close.
It marked the highest close in more than 13 years since March 2009 when the global financial crisis roiled financial markets across the world.
The Fed took a giant step again overnight, raising its benchmark interest rate by 0.75 percentage points to a range of 3.00-3.25 percent.
