The decline is interpreted as profit-taking selling triggered by the rapid surge in a short period. Seegene, which was around 37,000 won on the 5th of last month, recorded consecutive daily limit-ups starting the very next day, and surged to 121,000 won on the 30th, more than tripling its stock price within a month.
