National Pension insurance premium
Support threshold expanded to 1 million won
In short
The National Pension Service decided to expand the insurance premium support criteria for low-income regional subscribers.
The plan is to expand from monthly income below 800,000 won to below 1 million won.
It will be reflected in next year's government budget plan and implemented.

What it means for me
Regional subscribers with monthly income between 800,000 and 1 million won may newly be included in the insurance premium support program.
Self-employed and other regional subscribers with low income have greater possibility of receiving support.
Low-income retired regional subscribers can also benefit from the expanded support.
