SEOUL, Oct 22 (Reuters) – The Bank of Korea left its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 3.00% on Thursday, pausing after back-to-back quarter-point hikes in July and August. The seven-member monetary policy board at the BOK voted to keep the seven-day repurchase rate at 3.00%, a decision that was forecast by all 34 analysts surveyed by Reuters. Governor Shin Hyun Song will hold a news conference at 0210 GMT. (Reporting by Cynthia Kim, Jihoon Lee; Editing by Sam Holmes)
