The number of self-employed people in South Korea has fallen at a far faster pace in 2020 than last year, data showed.
South Korea had 5.548 million self-employed people as of the end of July, down 127,000 from the same month a year earlier, according to data from the Korea Small Business Institute and Statistics Korea.
The decrease is far higher than the figure from a year earlier. (Yonhap)
