The Korea Institute for Health and Social Sciences conducted a survey of 2,000 men and women between the ages of 19 and 49 from August 8 to 25 last year.
As a result of the survey, only 51.7% of the 1,059 people, excluding those who are currently legally married, answered that they were thinking about getting married.
24.5% of respondents said they had no intention of getting married, and 19.1% said they could not decide yet.
By gender, more men (56.3%) had the intention of getting married than women (47.2%).
Furthermore, when we asked everyone surveyed if they would like to have children, the most common answer, 46.0%, was ``I don't think I will have children.'' The number of respondents who answered “I think I will give birth” is 2.
It was 8.3%. Among married people who do not yet have children (including those living together, in a common-law marriage, and in a legal marriage), the responses were ``I think I will have a child'' (46.5%), ``I can't decide yet'' (26.4%), and ``I don't think I will have a child.''
” (24.7%). Lee Seo Yeon, a research fellow at the Korea Institute of Health and Social Sciences, said, ``In order to increase people's use of policies and to ensure that policies influence their choices about marriage and childbirth,
We must do our utmost in public relations and education,'' and ``we must continue to conduct research in order to promote policies that reflect the viewpoints of the public, who are the policy consumers.''
