Korea suffers from severe elderly poverty and experiences poverty due to low income as well as in various other areas including assets, health, and social participation. However, there is no current analysis of how the Korean social security system handles the multidimensional elderly poverty problem. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine whether there is a difference in the level of social security benefits depending on the type. The descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and crossover analysis were performed using the survey data of the elderly from 2014 in order to analyze the relationship between poverty characteristics of income, assets, labor, health, interpersonal relationship, social participation, and housing as well as public assistance, social insurance, and social service security characteristics. The main results are as follows. Multidimensional poverty types were classified into three deficiency types as a result of k-means cluster, group 1 (non-deficiency), group 2 (health+social participation deficiency) and group 3(overall deficiency) and were used to analyze the level of social security benefits. As a result, the characteristics of the use of social services by multidimensional poverty types were shown distinctively. Political and practical implications were derived by seeking a development strategy for the social security system reflecting this.
