Abstract
The purpose of this study was to define the relationship between respondents' social economic condition and willingness to pay on forest landscape. From the result of analyzing the difference of willingness to pay amount with considering social economic condition by using statistical technique, it was found that willingness to pay amount was highest when people are able to access forests landscape. In addition, it was found that women's willingness to pay amount was higher than that of men and the person such as laborer and public employee, who could spare enough time, had the intention to pay higher amount, than the person such as specialist and self-employed person, who spare enough money. For age, it was found that the retired people in their sixties showed low willingness to pay amount on forest scenery. For income per household, it was interesting that although willingness to pay amount increased as income increased, it was rather low in high income class, whose income was more than KRW 10 million.
