The average commuting time of office workers is more than 70 minutes per day on average, the report showed.

It was analyzed that those in their 30s had the longest commute and spent more time commuting if they had preschool children.

According to the Statistics Korea's analysis of the movement characteristics of commuting workers, the average commuting time for commuting workers was 73.9 minutes.

The commuting time for those in their 30s was the longest at 76.9 minutes.

By region, the Seoul metropolitan area was the longest at 82 minutes, and Gangwon was the shortest at 57.7 minutes.

It seems to reflect the high traffic congestion in the Seoul metropolitan area, where many workers commute to and from Seoul.

The commute time for workers with preschool children was 77 minutes, which was longer than for those without preschool children.

This survey was calculated and compiled using mobile location and movement information of three telecommunications companies, SKT, KT, and LG U+, and is not an official approval statistic according to the Statistics Act.
