The Seoul Metropolitan Government launched a “Youth Meeting, Seoulting” project to arrange a meeting for unmarried young people, saying that it would solve low birth rates.
The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced that it had decided to discuss once more the effectiveness of the ‘Seoulting’ project in resolving the issue of low birth rates and to reexamine the promotion of the project.
‘Seoulting’ is a business that provides natural opportunities for meeting unmarried young people between the ages of 25 and 39 who work in Seoul by running barista classes or hobbies such as mountain climbing.
Seoul City planned to recruit young people of marriageable age to participate in ‘Seoulting’ six times this year.
However, as the main causes of low birth were high house prices, difficult environments for raising children, and women’s career interruptions, criticism continued that it might not be solved by increasing opportunities to meet.
Some criticize that it is a waste of tax on a business that has no effect.
Regarding this, Mayor Oh Se-hoon said at a plenary session of the Seoul Metropolitan Council on the 13th, “Since the world is so harsh, unmarried women (before a blind date) worry regarding meeting a criminal before thinking regarding whether they will be a good match.” judged that,” he explained.
In addition, he persuaded that “(the city) is paying attention to all the points pointed out, but the birth rate is low, so they are doing this.”
However, when the criticism did not subside despite Mayor Oh’s explanation, the city of Seoul eventually took a step back, saying that it would fully review the project.
