Legal basis (in Korean): 근로기준법 제48조(임금대장 및 임금명세서) 기반 · 고용노동부 https://www.moel.go.kr
This is a general explanation to help you read a payslip, not legal advice. Every amount in the tables is made up for the sake of the explanation and has nothing to do with real wages. Insurance rates, tax tables and the minimum wage change every year, so check that year's official notice. For advice about wages, the Ministry of Employment and Labor customer center (1350) helps in several languages.
