The KLoWF investigates changes in women’s lives by life cycle, family structure, family formation process and daily living, life course and values, and jobs. In 2007, the first wave of the KLoWF surveyed almost 10,000 women aged 19 to 64 years living in 9,068 households across South Korea. The second wave was conducted in 2008, and from 2010, participants have been surveyed every other year.
