The increase followed a revised 2.2 percent contraction in May.
Production grew in 10 of the 15 surveyed industrial sectors. Automobile production increased 6.1 percent, while electronic parts and devices production rose 6.8 percent on a recovery in the output of smartphone parts.
Meanwhile, the output of petroleum and coal products declined 5.3 percent, and pulp, paper and paper products slid 2.1 percent.
The ministry kept its assessment of industrial production unchanged, saying it was "showing signs of moderately picking up."
