A 34-year-old man appeared in the 321st episode of the KBS Joy entertainment show 「Ask Me Anything」, which aired on the 23rd, confessing that `I want to get married, but I am worried because the Korean marriage view and my values collide.'
After working as a navigator in Korea, he moved to Australia, graduated from law school, and is now working as a foreign lawyer, he said, `In Australia, it was an atmosphere where only love was enough, but in Korea, it is confusing because it is an atmosphere where conditions are being discussed.'
In response, Seo Jang-hoon called for a cold perception of reality, saying "Does love feed you?" Then "It's not a country problem, but a realistic condition for marriage is important. In general, it is inevitable to consider economic power.
The writer wrote "I couldn't afford to date because I was concentrating on my studies and work in Australia"At first, I took 110 million won, but I spent 300 million won to cover my tuition and living expenses, and now I have paid back all the money I borrowed from my parents." He added that he currently has an annual salary of 80 million won and has no family to support.
Seo Jang-hoon said, `I want to get married, but I don't have any money saved, and I think it's frustrating because women keep asking for conditions.' But if you meet someone, tell them to look at the future rather than now. The important thing is to prove it by living like that."
