Getting married and building a life with a partner is often considered one of the most significant yet financially daunting milestones in life.

However, in Busan’s Saha District, South Korea, a groundbreaking initiative has emerged to alleviate these financial burdens, making it easier for couples to embark on their journey together.

This innovative program offers romantics the chance to connect with like-minded individuals through a variety of social events, specifically designed to foster relationships.

What makes this initiative particularly remarkable is that if a couple forms as a result of one of these events, they become eligible for substantial financial incentives, designed to support them as they continue their journey together.

In an effort to combat South Korea’s alarming population decline, which has reached critical levels with a fertility rate of just 0.72 children per woman, the district offers married couples up to €35,000 in incentives.

These financial benefits aim to ease the challenges of marriage and parenthood, encouraging more couples to tie the knot and eventually have children.

This program is not just about promoting marriage but also addressing the broader demographic crisis facing South Korea by making family life more attainable and financially sustainable.
