It classifies the group of older people based on the data taken from <2004 Time Use Survey> that helps examine the Life-World of older people materialized through productive activities. Especially, there was a significant difference in productive activities by gender. Male and female older people were also different in major participatory area, and it was found that female spent much more time in productive activities than male according to the amount of time spent in productive activities by a broad definition. The group of older people can be classified into several types of characteristics in terms of productive activities.
