Social background
As youth unemployment is getting higher and the socio-economic situation in South Korea remains unstable, younger generations are more concerned with financial stability and their own health rather than finding love. Since the 2010s, young Koreans in their 20s and 30s began to be called the 鈥3-po generation鈥 or 鈥淪ampo鈥 in Korean. This name is a reference to the relative speed at which this generation give up on love, marriage, and children. Despite the greater opportunities to connect online and via social media, there has been an increase in people who feel alone in everyday life. According to the survey, younger generations who were more exposed to digital society felt more lonely than the older generations.
Online dating apps
Younger generations who may be reluctant to talk face to face are increasingly looking for social dating apps. Many younger dating app users also prefer social dating apps because of the ease at which they can connect with potential partners. In South Korea, the most popular dating apps were聽Noon Date, Amanda, and Tinder.
