特殊城市 特殊的自主城市 大都市 大市政城市 行政城市 城市韩国最大的城市的自治地位等同于省份。首尔是最大的城市和首都，被归类为Teukbyeolsi （特殊城市），而下一个六大城市被归类为Gwangyeoksi （大都市城市）。较小的城市被归类为SI （“城市”），并在与县同一级别处于省级管辖范围内。
城市地位《地方自治法》第10条定义了人口稠密地区可能成为城市的标准：该地区主要是城市化，人口至少为50,000；一个城市化地区的枪支，人口至少为50,000；或总人口至少为150,000和多个城市化地区的枪支，每个人口至少为20,000。 这些标准之外的案件需要具体的立法，例如国民议会的特别法案将吉伦格指定为城市。
根据《地方自治法》第3条，一个人口少于500,000的城市可能会以其城市化地区的董el形式创建行政细分，而在其农村地区则以EUP或MYEON的形式创建行政细分，而人口超过500,000的城市可以以非自治gu的形式创建行政细分。
大型城市的分类国家政府可以将至少500,000名居民的城市指定为特殊地位城市。这种地位扩大了从省政府到市政府的行政权威的范围。 没有成为大都市的法律标准，但是当人口接近1,000,000时，它通常被提升为大都市。但是，考虑到Suwon ， Changwon ， Goyang和Yongin有四个城市的人口超过100万，但没有成为大都市城市，因此没有进一步的晋升。
大城市一个大城市是一个人口超过500,000的城市（一个特殊的城市或大都市），并已根据《地方自治法》第198条的规定，已由国家政府的命令指定。大型城市有能力将自己划分为非自治地区（ 일반구 ;一般区）。 但是，一些大型市政城市选择不将自己分为纪念，吉姆海， hwaseong或namyangju等地区。目前，韩国共有17个大城市。 “特定的城市”（ 특정시 ，特定市）是具有市政地位的大城市的非正式术语。
济州市由于其作为行政城市的法律地位，尽管截至2022年估计人口超过500,000。授予济州省的特殊自治地位；该法律特别指出，《地方自治法》不适用于行政城市。因此，济州市不享受特殊的自主权，而与较小的Seogwipo City拥有相同的法律权力。济州市的行政当局正试图扩大从省政府委派给市政府的行政当局的范围。
特殊地位城市一个特殊的地位城市是大市政大城市的一个子类，人口大于1,500,000。
