That is what I was thinking. The “usual” reasons until I dug deeper.
Korea like a lot of countries is very traditional and wants women to be married and have children. There is no “single mother” or “Baby daddy drama” there like here in America. It just does not happen.
Problem is they are not getting married. Women and men say they can’t afford it and are choosing to stay single and in the work place. I can’t even tell that they are dating.
They can afford it, they just don’t want to make sacrifices.
I wanted to say “keep women out of the work force” but that seemed kind of sexist.
