SEOUL, Sept 1 Asia Pulse - South Korea's stock markets are expected to continue their bullishness next week thanks to a rising trend on Wall Street and continued buying by foreign investors, analysts said.

The Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) closed this week at 759.47, up 0.62 percent from last week's close, hitting a yearly high.
