Abstract: We investigate the distribution function and the cumulative probability for Korean household incomes, i.e., the current, labor, and property incomes. For our case, the distribution functions are consistent with a power law. It is also showed that the probability density of income growth rates almost has the form of a exponential function. Our obtained results are compared with those of other numerical calculations.
