* KOSPI rises, foreigners net buyers * Korean won strengthens against U.S. dollar * South Korea benchmark bond yield rises SEOUL, Sept 6 (Reuters) - Round-up of South Korean financial markets: ** South Korean shares rose on Monday, buoyed by expectations of a delay in the reduction of U.S. pandemic-era stimulus following disappointing hiring data from the world's biggest economy. The Korean won strengthened, while the benchmark bond yield rose. ** The benchmark KOSPI rose 0.21 points, or 0.01%, to 3,201.27 as of 0304 GMT. ** Among the heavyweights, technology giant Samsung Electronics rose 1.04% and peer SK Hynix fell 0.93%, while LG Chem rose 3.72% and Naver fell 0.33%. ** Investors are assessing the fallout from the September payrolls report, which showed a much smaller increase in jobs than expected but also a pick up in wages. ** U.S. jobs report was "shockingly bad" but investors see the dip could be temporary, and that sluggish jobs market could delay tapering, said Park Kwang-nam, an analyst at Mirae Asset Securities. ** Foreigners were net buyers of 1.2 billion won worth of shares on the main board. ** The won was quoted at 1,156.4 per dollar on the onshore settlement platform , 0.05% higher than its previous close at 1,157.0. ** In offshore trading, the won was quoted at 1,156.2 per dollar, down 0.2% from the previous day, while in non-deliverable forward trading, its one-month contract was quoted at 1,156.7. ** The KOSPI has risen 11.41% so far this year, but lost 1.5% in the previous 30 trading sessions. ** The trading volume during the session in the KOSPI index was 455.55 million shares. Of the total traded issues of 922, the number of advancing shares was 392. ** The won has lost 6.1% against the dollar so far this year. ** In money and debt markets, September futures on three-year treasury bonds fell 0.03 points to 110.36.
