SEOUL -- Omelets should be making a welcome return to South Korean dining tables as a prolonged spike in the price of eggs looks to have finally subsided -- an outbreak of avian flu late last year had seen them skyrocket.
According to Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corp., retail prices averaged 5,655 won ($5.01) for a pack of 30 eggs in September, down just over 20% from 7,233 won in August and only slightly above the 5,590 won for September 2016.
