Purpose: The purpose of the Activation of Public Transportation by Analysis of Factors Influencing Satisfaction of Commuting Hours in the Metropolitan Area. Method: This study analyzed the factors affecting wide-area commuting time and satisfaction for office workers who perform wide-area commuting. Result: in the case of commuting satisfaction for wide-area commuting hours by region, commuting time satisfaction was relatively low in the metropolitan area as the average commuting time was high, and commuting time satisfaction was relatively high in the non-metropolitan area as the average commuting time was low. Conclusion: In the future, the government will establish or improve express railways and wide-area buses to reduce wide-area commuting time, and build urban highways to shorten passenger car use time, which will reduce commuting time, but qualitative indicators are more important. In other words, even if commuting time is long, life satisfaction increases, so quality of life is important, and it is necessary to improve commuting time satisfaction rather than simple indicators of commuting time, so both qualitative and quantitative aspects of commuting time need to be improved.
