Abstract
In recent decades, gender inequality has always been a significant topic. According to the UNDP, most of the countries are making efforts to reduce gender wage gap. However, there is still a huge gender pay gap in many countries. Existing research primarily explores the factors that have resulted in gender pay gap in different regions. However, there was not any prior research explored the differences of gender gap between Korea and Norway. Therefore, using the database in 2020, this paper researches the difference of gender wage gap in two countries: Norway and South Korea. It also compares the relationships between age, education background, occupation, job duration, and gender wage gap in these two countries. The study finds that there are many differences between these two countries’ gender wage gap, not only on the size of workers’ gender wage gap, but also on the relation between gender wage gap and factors that could influence gender wage gap.
