[Photo] Despite 1.13 Million Increase in January Employment...

In January, the number of employed people increased by more than 1.13 million compared to the previous year. This increase is the largest in 22 years. However, it is largely attributed to the fact that the number of employed people had decreased by nearly 1 million due to the COVID-19 pandemic a year ago. In particular, when looking at employment by age group, the number of employed people in their 30s, which had decreased by more than 270,000 a year ago, only increased by about 20,000 last January.
