Do Koreans Live With Their Parents Until Marriage?

Published in Korean Family 1 min read

While not a universal practice, a significant percentage of Korean adults do live with their parents until marriage.

Based on recent surveys, here's a breakdown:

  • Prevalence: According to a recent survey, 68% of South Korean adults living with their parents in apartments have no plans to move out until they are married (14-Mar-2024). This suggests that remaining at home until marriage is a common choice for many.

This information highlights a trend, but it's important to remember that this is not true for all Koreans. Factors like financial independence, career opportunities in different locations, and personal preferences also influence living arrangements.
