According to the report, Kim Shang Zuo said that solving all kinds of problems in labor and capital is the principle unchanged by Wen Yin Yin's government. One of the prerequisites is that patience and efforts should be made to accumulate the mutual trust between the government and the trade unions for a long time. Jin Shangzuo also said that he hopes that the adjustment of the minimum hourly wage will become an opportunity to eliminate all kinds of misunderstandings and prejudices in Korean society. The government will still strive to realize the policy of income led growth, innovative growth and a virtuous circle of fair economy.
The report also mentioned that the South Korean Minimum Wage Commission decided at its 13th plenary meeting on the 12th that the minimum hourly wage in 2020 was 8590 won, a year-on-year increase of 2.9%, a new low in more than two years. The minimum hourly wage in Korea increased by 16.4% in 2018 and 10.9% in 2019. The government and the ruling party have repeatedly stressed the necessity of adjusting the increase of the minimum hourly wage, but from the current situation, it is difficult to achieve the government commitment of the minimum hourly wage of 10000 won by 2020.
