Eligibility and amount detailsCurrent 2026 formula: eligible rental households receive actual monthly rent plus converted deposit costs up to region-and-household standard-rent ceilings; self-owned households receive statutory repair support. The 2026 income-recognition threshold is 48% of median household income, including KRW 1,230,834/month for one person. The current Ministry of Health and Welfare personal-scope exception states that a person registered as a foreigner under Immigration Control Act Article 31 may qualify where the person is: ‘대한민국 국민과 혼인 중인 사람으로서 본인 또는 대한민국 국적의 배우자가 임신 중인 사람’; ‘대한민국 국민과 혼인 중인 사람으로서 대한민국 국적의 미성년 자녀를 양육하고 있는 사람’; ‘배우자의 대한민국 국적인 직계존속과 생계나 주거를 같이하는 사람’; or ‘대한민국 국민인 배우자와 이혼하거나 그 배우자가 사망한 사람으로서 대한민국 국적의 미성년 자녀를 양육하고 있는 사람 또는 사망한 배우자의 태아를 임신하고 있는 사람’.

The payable amount varies with the insured worker’s earnings and statutory benefit-day rules. The official Work24 employment-insurance coverage page states: ‘외국인근로자의 경우 고용보험 적용제외 대상이나, 일부 체류자격의 경우 당연, 임의, 상호주의로 구분 적용’ (foreign workers are generally excluded from employment-insurance coverage, but some stay-status categories are covered as mandatory, voluntary or reciprocal cases).

An occupation major group (ISCO or national equivalent) is not a job title: each figure is the average across all occupations in the group, so it is never a salary "for" one profession. Rows from different surveys, periods or statistics are shown as separate rows and are never merged or ranked against each other.
