Study of central managerial function is very important in the study of urban system, and the study of changing location of central managerial function and that of development process of urban system should be more studied, because urban system is always changing. This article investigates the location of central managerial function in main cities in Korea after the 1960s, taking account of the changes in accumulation and territory of economic and administrative central managerial functions. The results are as follows: 1. In the mid-1960s, four provincial capital cities with large population, Pusan, Taegu, Kwangju and Taejon, had already possessed larger administrative central managerial function than other cities, although there was not much difference in economic central managerial function among the provincial capital cities. 2. By the end of 1970s, the four larger provincial capital cities, Pusan, Taegu, Kwangju and Taejon, had strengthened their economic central managerial function. As a result, the territory of both economic and administrative central managerial functions of these cities covered more than one province, and we can distinguish these four cities as "regional central cities" from other cities. Among other cities, newly industrial cities such as Masan and Pohang strengthened their economic central managerial function, and Inchon and Cheju strengthened their administrative central managerial function. 3. At the beginning of the 1990s, the regional central cities further accumulated central managerial function, and have established their firm position in the Korean urban system. These cities are followed by smaller provincial capital cities or newly industrial cities, although the territories of central managerial function of these cities are limited within one province. 4. A hierarchical structure in the location of central managerial function is identified both in terms of accumulation and territory. Especially, the four regional central cities have grown rapidly under the influence of regional development policy of Korean government to establish a development center in each region. 5. Although there was much imbalance between the accumulation of economic central managerial function and that of administrative central managerial function in many Korean cities under Japanese colonial rule, these two functions have become more balanced after the 1960s, except the newly industrial cities which are much more specialized in the economic central managerial function than administrative one.
