"한국 남자랑 결혼할래" 혼인 건수 40% 넘게 급증했다 / SBS / 뉴스딱

With relations between Korea and Japan improving recently, international marriages have increased significantly, particularly among couples consisting of Korean men and Japanese women. Yes, according to statistics from the National Data Agency two years ago. The number of marriages between Korean men and Japanese women reached 1,176, a surge of over 40% compared to the previous year. This is the highest figure in the last 10 years. In contrast, marriages between Korean women and Japanese men have decreased to one-fifth of what they were 10 years ago, presenting a stark contrast. The primary reason is cultural exchange, including the popularity of the Korean Wave (Hallyu). Both countries have recorded their highest-ever levels of favorability toward each other, and it appears that cultural content, particularly K-pop and dramas, has driven this shift in perception. Additionally, the perception that the culture of couples sharing wedding expenses is relatively more established in Japan also seems to have played a role. Experts analyze that this trend will continue for the foreseeable future, as it represents a structural change rather than a temporary fad. ☞ More detailed information https://news.sbs.co.kr/y/?id=N1008483008 ☞ [News Ttak] View articles https://news.sbs.co.kr/y/t/?id=100000... #Korea #Japan #NewsTtak ▶ Subscribe to SBS News Channel : https://n.sbs.co.kr/youtube ♨ Discuss current hot issues together (Subscribe to SPR) : https://premium.sbs.co.kr ▶ SBS News Live : https://n.sbs.co.kr/youtubeLive , https://n.sbs.co.kr/live ▶ Report to SBS News Homepage: https://n.sbs.co.kr/inform Application: Install the 'SBS News' app and report - https://n.sbs.co.kr/App KakaoTalk: 'SBS News' and Add as friend and chat - https://pf.kakao.com/_ewsdq/chat Facebook: Send 'SBS News' message -   / sbs8news   Email: [email protected] Text: # followed by 6000 Phone: 02-2113-6000 Website: https://news.sbs.co.kr/ Facebook:   / sbs8news   X: https://x.com/sbs8news KakaoTalk: https://pf.kakao.com/_ewsdq Instagram:   / sbsnews   Thread: https://www.threads.com/@sbsnews Copyright Ⓒ SBS.
