Each benefit shows an income condition like "median income 100% or below" with a different percentage. This table lets you look up the actual monthly income amount (KRW) for a given household size and percentage. Since the median income standard is announced anew each year, and some benefits still use a previously announced year (e.g. 2025), we provide the two most recent years together.
9+ person households: calculated by adding the per-person increase for that year (specified in the source notice below each year's table) to the 8-person base amount for each additional person.
This table is a reference calculated from the median income (100%) announced yearly by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The actual income assessment used for benefit screening is calculated separately by converting income and assets, so it may differ from this table. For an accurate determination, use the Bokjiro simulation or contact the agency handling the benefit you're applying for.
