Using data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) 2018 2020, we conducted Latent Class Analysis (LCA) to identify the labour market structure between Capital Region (CR) and non-CR, and Latent Transition Analysis (LTA) to examine mobility between segments. We identified three segments in CR and four in non-CR. Income gaps across segments were heterogeneous and an exclusive position of the top segments. Furthermore, there were significant underlying constraints on mobility across segments, with entry into the top tier being very limited. These results suggest that the multi segmentation and heterogeneous gaps can be observed in postindustrial societies, and deeper division may occur in labour market for non-CR with limited opportunities such as personal contact.
