Motivation: Our pertinent national source, the Bank of Korea, has extended their quarterly national accounts by 40 years, back to 1960.

Response: We have incorporated the revisions and extended history.

What you will see

• National estimates; All periods revised, from 1960Q1. 
• Subnational estimates; All periods revised, from 1985Q1.

The series reside in the historical catalog:

• South Korea » National Accounts » by Value Add » prices » Moody's Analytics Estimated

Method: Because the source now reports full history in single series, it is no longer necessary for us to splice two vintages. Our method is otherwise unchanged; please refer to the background documentation in Mnemonic 411.
