Young S Koreans giving up on marriage amid economic pressures

Common problem in many countries. Recently getting worse with high inflation around the world.

" Kang is one of many young people today in South Korea who have chosen an unmarried lifestyle, believing that marriage is too much of a financial burden.

She believes that taking photos with her pet dog Kkong Kkong, who is also glamorously attired for the occasion, will give her confidence as she walks down the aisle of life by herself."

If money stays tight she's at least got dinner in the house.

Sad situation, South Korea has two easy consumer fixes, lower tariffs to help drive down prices of goods and get rid of the crazy laws around apartment rentals requiring most tenants to obtain EXPENSIVE Bank like Financing.

Too much of a money culture in SK, tariffs amongst very highest in the world. Time to take care of citizens of SK and put a stop the business political 'corruption' $graft that drives $tariff madness making life unaffordable.

$200,000 for a wedding? That is nuts. I thought people in the US spending thousands of bucks on a wedding was ridiculous. But fifty times as much! Get married in front of a judge, have a cheap reception with a few friends and family members and use the money to buy a place to live. Then you can have a family.
