In 2021, there were around 6.1 million establishments in South Korea. Since the National Business Investigation study started collecting data in 1993, the number of registered establishments showed overarching steady growth as the years passed. The dip in 1997 to 1999 was due to the occurrence and aftermath of the Asian Financial Crisis (also known as "IMF Crisis" in South Korea).
