We need to translate the given English text into Korean (Hangul), preserving numbers, tickers, abbreviations, URLs, etc. Also preserve formatting: markdown, line breaks. The input includes a marker at end: which must NOT be translated, copy exactly.
We must not add any extra text. Output only translation.
We need to translate everything except the marker and any unchanged items: ticker symbols (CLU26, RBU26) are not tickers? They are futures symbols; they should be kept as is. Also financial abbreviations: RSI, P/E, EPS, SMA, ROE, EBITDA, etc. In the text we have percentages etc. Keep numbers unchanged.
We need to translate sentences into Korean, formal analytic style like Korean economic newspapers.
We must preserve markdown formatting: there are headings? The input includes lines like:
September WTI crude oil (CLU26) is up +1.83 (+2.43%) today, and September RBOB gasoline (RBU26) is up +0.0777 (+2.74%).
Crude oil and gasoline prices are climbing today on uncertainty regarding a proposed plan by Iran and Oman to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Also, a reported missile attack on a Saudi oil tanker by Houthi rebels is giving crude oil prices a boost.

- Progress Toward Reopening the Strait of Hormuz Weighs on Oil Prices
Crude prices are rising today on concerns about oil supplies from the Middle East after Yemen's Houthi rebels said they targeted a Saudi oil tanker with a ballistic missile today in the Gulf of Aden. The Houthis said they will escalate attacks on Saudi oil tankers in the northern Red Sea to prevent them from transiting the area.
The markets are waiting for news of an Iran-Oman agreement to partially reopen the Strait of Hormuz. A joint statement from the two countries is under review, and the route would remain active for two to four months, though the agreement does not mean a full reopening, according to Iranian officials. Iran said that a normalization of the strait will depend on the US lifting its blockade on Iranian ports.
Crude prices also have support as Ukraine intensifies drone attacks on Russian oil infrastructure. Ukraine has attacked Russian refineries, oil tankers, and major pipeline infrastructure at least 30 times in July, the second highest monthly number of attacks since the war began in 2022. According to EA Analytics, Russian crude-processing rates will average 3.51 million bpd in July, the lowest in 24 years, amid damage to Russian energy infrastructure caused by drone and missile attacks from Ukraine. As of the end of June, around 90% of Russian regions have imposed some form of fuel rationing or reported supply issues, as refining capacity has plunged following damage to facilities. The strikes have deepened a nationwide gasoline shortage, with several major refineries shut down and the government banning almost all gasoline, jet fuel and diesel exports. Russia is the world's number two diesel exporter, after the US, according to Vortexa.
Robust crude supplies in China may reduce Chinese crude purchases in the near term, a bearish factor for oil prices. China's crude inventories remain abundant, with supplies falling by only 54 million bbl since early May to around 1.2 billion bbl, according to data from Kpler.
We need to translate everything except the marker.
We must preserve line breaks and markdown formatting: there is a heading "### More News from Barchart". Keep that as is (the heading markers are markdown, we keep them). Also bullet points with "- " (dash and spaces). We need to translate the bullet text but keep the dash and spacing? Probably keep the dash and spaces as is, translate the text after.
We must not translate ticker symbols: CLU26, RBU26. Also keep numbers unchanged: +1.83, (+2.43%), +0.0777, (+2.74%). Also numbers like 30 times, 2022, 3.51 million bpd, 24 years, 90%, etc. Also "bbl" maybe keep as is? It's a unit; not in the list of keep-as-is but it's not a financial abbreviation; but we should translate? The rule says keep numbers exactly; units can be translated? Usually we keep units as is? The rule says keep numbers exactly; doesn't mention units. But we should translate the surrounding text, but keep the unit "bbl" as is? It's not a number; it's an abbreviation. Might be considered a unit; but safer to keep as is because it's not a financial abbreviation but it's a standard unit; but the rule didn't say to keep units. However, translating "bbl" to Korean might be odd; better keep as is. Similarly "bpd" (barrels per day) maybe keep as is. The rule says keep financial abbreviations unchanged; "bpd" is not listed. But it's a unit; we could translate to Korean? Usually Korean news uses "배럴/일" but they might keep "bpd". Safer to keep as is because it's an abbreviation; but not mandated. I'd keep as is to avoid altering meaning.
Also "EA Analytics" is a proper noun; keep as is. "Vortexa" keep as is. "Kpler" keep as is.
Now translate.
We need to produce Korean translation, formal style.
Let's translate sentence by sentence.
First sentence: "September WTI crude oil (CLU26) is up +1.83 (+2.43%) today, and September RBOB gasoline (RBU26) is up +0.0777 (+2.74%)."
Translate: "9월 WTI 원유(CLU26)는 오늘 +1.83(+2.43%) 상승했으며, 9월 RBOB 가솔린(RBU26)은 +0.0777(+2.74%) 상승했습니다."
Check numbers: keep +1.83, (+2.43%), +0.0777, (+2.74%). Good.
Second sentence: "Crude oil and gasoline prices are climbing today on uncertainty regarding a proposed plan by Iran and Oman to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Also, a reported missile attack on a Saudi oil tanker by Houthi rebels is giving crude oil prices a boost
