In fact, young people actually have a higher chance of receiving pensions well compared to the elderly today.

‌
Compared to the amount they paid, the amount current seniors receive and their eligibility age
might look overwhelmingly advantageous on the surface,
but considering the year the National Pension was established and the massive gap in information accessibility,
the elderly currently receiving pensions aren't necessarily at an advantage.
In fact, there is a high possibility that people in their 20s today will receive pensions even better in the future.
If those in their 20s catch on to information quickly, start paying into the National Pension early,
receive military service credits later, and fill roughly 40 years, they will receive at least 1.2 million won per month.
It is said that many current seniors receive less than 800,000 won per month
because they found out too late, resulting in short payment periods.
