"South Korea has achieved the highest rate of motae solos among people in their 20s and 30s
The (sad) reason why Korea is receiving particular attention amidst the global rise in singles"
An institution analyzed the dating experiences of people in their 20s across various countries.
Analysis results show that dating less than the previous generation is a special phenomenon unique to Korea.
The phenomenon of disappearing dating is similar worldwide... but it is particularly more serious in Korea.

The experience rate itself is low across all age groups, and a stagnation phenomenon also occurs, where if you don't date until your early to mid-20s, it becomes difficult to find love in the future.
This time, I looked into dating experience by income bracket.

The cumulative number of romantic relationships is more starkly proportional to income than in other countries, and the willingness to date drops sharply starting from the 30s (especially for women)

To summarize: here
1. Dating has disappeared for both men and women, although the situation is more severe for men
2. Even when people do date, there is a polarization where only the same few continue
3. Money dictates dating from the very beginning (and it's not even marriage yet...).

2. I'm not a motae solo, but I haven't dated for 8-9 years now. I just love being single so much that I can't seem to change it
3. I'm too busy being anxious about my own future, and I'm tired ã… ã…œ
4. If you look around you, only the kids who are dating will continuously be dating
5. Hello, I'm a 30 y'o motae solo, It’s not that I’m being grandiose, just that I have high standards
6. It doesn't matter if someone is voluntarily motae solo, the real issue is the involuntary ones, isn't it? It’s baffling how they turn the fact that they’re single due to their own shortcomings into hatred toward the opposite s** in their own country
7. It's not a crime to be a motae solo, just let people do whatever they want
8. The risk is just too high for a woman in this country to date. This is just a fact... Everyone actually wants to date
9. I seriously never wanted to date
10. The difference is "can" and "want"
