As the most sensitive emerging Asian currency, South Korea's won provides the best proxy for investors looking to bet on how the region reacts to US President Donald Trump.
The currency's volatility is 11 per cent for the past year, more than its peers in the region, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The won is also the strongest, rising 5.3 per cent against the dollar year-to-date.
