The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the gender gap in household economics. This study focused in particular on how changes in occupational status affect personal expenditure and personal savings. The data was obtained from F-GENS Korea Panel Survey of Ochanomizu University. The responses were gathered primarily from married people in the Seoul metropolitan area. I used the data from 736 households. The Gender gap between wives and husbands due to the flow of economic resources in the household is as follows. First, in the case of wives who employed, their personal expenditure and personal savings have increased. Second, in the case of unemployed wives, the gap between wives and husbands with regard to personal expenditures and savings is expanding. Furthermore, the personal expenditure and personal savings of wives has decreased. Third, in the case of the wives who are employed on a full-time basis, their personal expenditure and personal savings have increased as a result of their change in job status and income.
