部 = 부 = Division, Part
(Korean name: 떼 부)
分 = 분 = Division, Part, Minute

You will find that these two characters have very similar meanings. In fact, they both have the same Korean name. You can find both of these characters in a variety of words (and sometimes used together) related to parts/divisions of something.
