기본소득 시범 7개 지역 추가, 8월부터 월 15만원 지급

South Korea has expanded its basic income pilot program by selecting seven additional counties. Starting in August, residents in these selected areas will receive a monthly payment of 150,000 won.

This initiative aims to explore the effects and feasibility of providing a universal basic income across different regions. The program's expansion is part of a broader effort to assess potential economic and social impacts.

The expansion of the basic income pilot program allows for a wider study of its potential effects on the economy and citizens' livelihoods.
