TOPIK 5-6

N에서 N의 비중이 높다

the share of … within … is high (large / small / low)

Weighs one part against the whole it sits in. The first N is the whole, the second is the part. Any of 높다, 낮다, 크다 or 작다 will do, with little difference in feel. Standard phrasing in financial statements, market analysis and presentations.

접속 conjugation

  • Mark the whole with N에서 and attach 비중 to the part with N의: 전체 매출에서 수출의 비중이 높습니다
  • The 「차지하는 비중」 form is more explicit: 수출이 차지하는 비중이 큽니다
  • All four adjectives work: 높다·낮다 (high/low proportion) and 크다·작다 (large/small share)

비중 always needs a “within what”. Say 수출의 비중이 높다 on its own and your listener waits for the whole. Set it out first with N에서. Note too that 비중 carries a sense of weight and importance — for a plain percentage, 비율 is the more accurate word.
