  • Concerns regarding daily life vary, from studies and career choices to employment. But a survey

  • on seven-thousand average Koreans showed that there is one topic that nearly half of the

  • respondents have in common. Money. Or better said, chances to continue earning money. Lee

  • Ji-won has more. What are Koreans most concerned about?

  • "I am most worried about my life after retirement. I haven't been able to prepare for it."

  • "I will be graduating soon, and I am worried about finding a job."

  • "My mother's health is my biggest concern as of now."

  • According to a research on some 7-thousand Koreans over 19 years old, about 25 percent

  • of the respondents were most concerned about their post-retirement plans, while about 18

  • percent placed their worries on employment and income,... whereas a bit over 26 percent

  • were concerned about other issues such as family relations.

  • The researchers said the results reflect the current problems in the Korean economy.

  • "As life expectancy increased, more senior citizens now have more years to live... but

  • with limited working time in their lives, they are pressed to reduce spending.

  • And such reduction in spending is one reason for the sluggish domestic demand."

  • But to revitalize the economy, experts say structural reforms are not enough.

  • The government must work to allow the senior population more opportunities and time to

  • earn income, such as pushing the retirement age along with expanding more loans like reverse

  • mortgage loans to help them liquidate their assets for spending.

  • "The expert added... if the government's structural reforms are successful, it will boost consumption

  • and job creation,... easing the financial burden on the public.

  • Lee Ji-won, Arirang News."
