2026 National Pension Back Payments: How Much Do Contributions Differ When Applying in November vs. December?

Applying for retroactive National Pension contributions (back payments) in November rather than December of 2026 may result in different contribution amounts. If the payment deadline falls in December after an application in November, the contribution rate is 9.5%. If the payment deadline falls in January 2027 after an application in December, the rate is 10%. For a standard monthly income of KRW 1,000,000 and 60 months of back payments, the difference is KRW 300,000.

2026 National Pension: Why Less Than KRW 142,500 Is Deducted From a KRW 3,000,000 Salary — The Difference Made by KRW 200,000 in Tax-Exempt Meal Allowances

Even if your gross monthly salary is KRW 3,000,000 in 2026, your National Pension contribution is not necessarily KRW 142,500. If your salary includes a tax-exempt meal allowance of KRW 200,000 and your standard monthly income for National Pension purposes is KRW 2,800,000, your monthly employee contribution is KRW 133,000. Even with the same gross salary of KRW 3,000,000, differences in salary composition can result in a monthly contribution difference of KRW 9,500. However, the actual deduction

Warren Buffett's 7 Investment Principles: How to Choose Good Stocks and the Keys to Long-Term Investing

Warren Buffett's investment philosophy centers on understanding businesses, evaluating their competitive advantages and management, buying at reasonable prices relative to intrinsic value, and holding investments for the long term. Managing downside risk and minimizing investment costs are also essential. However, the '7 principles' are not a single official list established by Buffett, but a summary of seven core ideas found in Berkshire Hathaway's shareholder letters.

Refinancing a Mortgage Before 3 Years: Is It Worth Paying an Early Repayment Fee for a 0.5%p Lower Interest Rate?

Refinancing your mortgage at a lower interest rate can be beneficial even if less than 3 years have passed since you took out the loan. The key is to compare not only the interest rate difference but also your future interest savings, early repayment fees, and the costs of obtaining a new loan. For example, if your outstanding loan balance is KRW 300,000,000 and your annual interest rate falls from 4.5% to 4.0%, the simple first-year interest difference calculated using your current balance

2027 Unemployment Benefit Cap at 103%: Has the Daily Amount of KRW 70,534 Been Finalized?

The government has officially announced plans to link the 2027 unemployment benefit cap to 103% of the minimum benefit, but it is still too early to regard the daily amount of KRW 70,534 as final. Based on the 2027 minimum wage of KRW 10,700, the daily minimum benefit for a worker with 8 working hours is KRW 68,480. Simply applying 103% produces KRW 70,534.4, but the actual applicable amount

2027 Unemployment Benefit Reform: Will the New Payment Method Apply to Current Recipients?

As of 2026-10-05, no definitive rules have been established for applying the 2027 unemployment benefit reform to people already receiving benefits. The government's proposal to change job-seeking benefit payments from 7 days per week to 6 days per week still requires subsequent amendments to laws and subordinate regulations. The eligibility rules and transitional provisions for existing recipients cannot yet be determined from the information publicly available. Therefore, current

2026 Year-End Tax Settlement: Is the Basic Credit Card Income Deduction Limit KRW 4,000,000 for Workers with 2 Children?

Yes. Starting with the 2026 tax year, employees with total annual salary of KRW 70,000,000 or less who have at least 2 qualifying children or other eligible descendants will see the annual basic income deduction limit for credit card and other eligible spending increase from KRW 3,000,000 to KRW 4,000,000. However, having 2 children does not automatically entitle someone to a deduction of KRW 4,000,000 or a tax refund of KRW 4,000,000. Total annual salary KRW 70,000,000

Leaving your job does not automatically mean that the KRW 142,500 you paid toward the National Pension at work will immediately become KRW 285,000 and be charged without exception. If you have no income after leaving your job, you can apply for a 'contribution exemption' to temporarily suspend payments, even if you become an individually insured contributor. However, you should also be aware that periods covered by a contribution exemption do not count toward your National Pension contribution period. 20

As of October 2026, the National Pension contribution rate is 9.5%. If the standard monthly income is KRW 3,000,000, the total monthly contribution is KRW 285,000. However, employees share the cost equally with their employers, so only KRW 142,500 is deducted from their salaries. Individually insured subscribers whose standard monthly income is assessed at the same KRW 3,000,000 must, in principle, pay the full KRW 285,000 themselves. Employees
