ReplyDelete2.Half of singles have no interest in marriage
3.Meaning of the marriage is not just union between men and women but union between family and the other family in Korean culture. And, in this circumstance, women have been forced to scarify themselves for not rational reasons but only because of Confucianism of Korean culture. Most of young people change their idea about the meaning of the marriage, but still the older generation thinks that it is reasonable to scarify rights of women during married life. And still most of problems that married women have are not improved. Our society encourages to get rid of the obstacles to decrease the positive concept of marriage. If we are not do anything about this problems, decrease in marriage has a bad effect birthrate directly.
