자식에게 손 벌리는 부모들의 현실 | 노인 빈곤율 35.9% | 부자의경제학

What happens at the moment when parents, who have spent their entire lives giving to their children, must ask for help for the first time? The relative poverty rate for seniors aged 65 and older in Korea stands at 35.9%, the highest among OECD countries. This story tells of a generation that poured everything into their children but failed to secure their own old age; it explores their quietly crumbling self-esteem and the pain of role reversal. It delicately examines the complex emotions of parents—deep emotional wounds beyond mere financial matters, intertwined with gratitude and shame. We confront the most painful facets of our society that we have turned a blind eye to.
