I believe a red spring is 60g in terms of Korean springs.

MX black springs are about 80g so they are significantly heavier than 62g Korean springs. The 62g are closer to Red springs.

They're more or less a 59 - 60g spring. The 62g's are a bit heavier than "light" springs, and the closest comparable to a stock black spring is an 80g.
