Divorces in Korea

 In the past, women didn't have their job, and they made a living from their husbands' money; they didn't have any power in their households. Also old generation people thought divorced people especially women had a big problem, so people who had problems with their spouse couldn't divorce before. However, these days here are lots of working wives, and people don't think divorced people have a serious personailty problem anymore. That is one of the biggest reason why divorces in Korea increased. In addition, young people who don't prepare to stand on society without their parents' supporting have rushed into marriages nowadays. It also helped the rapid rates of divorces in Korea.
