I think it's funny how they keep on making references to Korean Women having children with foreigners. A lot of marriages I have seen with foreigners have been with Korean men and a foreign woman. Not the other way around. Just my observation. And I make it because I am a white woman who married a Korean man. I have street cred.

[@ZuLiAnO_FaRhAn]

😅🤣😂😂😂

[@user-by3vz6gm8r]

What do you think prevents foreign men from marrying Korean women?

Because your situation is a relatively new development only in the past 10 yrs after Korea built it's cultural cred and economic cred, did men gain the option to marry foreigners. Historically, that was a priivlege reserved for women mostly, it's still that way currently in the vast majority of asian countries.

[@eekay3646]

Street cred lol

[@jjman533]

I see three patterns regarding mixed marriages involving Koreans. First, many Koreans were adopted by American families and they were raised as Americans. Chances are, they would not marry another Korean person. They almost always marry a non Korean. Next, the Korean females were marrying lots of US military men that were stationed in the Korean base. Once they got married, they usually move out of Korea and live in America. So why the recent trend in mainly Korean males marrying female foreigners? Kpop and Kdrama. Who are the main fans/groupies of Kpop and Krama? Females. Foreign females from other countries come to Korea to seek Korean men. Ask every foreign female in Korea what brought them to Korea and you will hear the same two things Kpop and Kdrama.

[@seseth9971]

Basic consensus is that Koreans are open to immigration based on marriage, marrying a Korean as a foreigner before settling down. That way, we as Korean collective, could at least ensure that kids coming from that marriage are not totally isolated from Korean culture. Cultural fusion is what we want. We don't want any kids to be left unattended or ignored potentially to become outcasts hostile to our culture and society. If an individual immigrant is single and has no plans for marriage, I think it's ok too.

[@edde8624]

Do point to any data that says Koreans are open to immigration based on marriage. I'd love to see that. There's no such thing as cultural fusion and if there was, USA would have succeed in this instead of becoming one of the most unstable nations on the planet where different groups are basically fighting for their own rights.

[@briankim2903]

No, I don’t think Korea needs to become more diverse by bringing in more immigrants, and here’s why: globalization often leads to the erasure of unique ethnic heritage and culture. The push for diversity everywhere is rooted in a Western-centric mindset that assumes every country should conform to Western values and ideologies. The idea that a nation being ethnically homogeneous is somehow wrong or peculiar is a very Western viewpoint that ignores the unique histories and contexts of other countries. Korea has maintained its cultural identity for thousands of years, resisting countless invasions and external pressures to remain true to itself. Unlike Western colonial powers like the UK, France, and Spain, which diversified through the exploitation and colonization of other nations, Korea’s homogeneity reflects a long history of self-preservation and resilience. We’ve never colonized others or imposed our culture on different lands; we’ve simply fought to protect our own. This is completely different from the U.S., which was founded on colonization and built on immigration, or from Europe, where diversity often resulted from centuries of colonial exploitation. Western ideologies often push the narrative that a diverse, globalized world is inherently better, but what they fail to acknowledge is that this perspective can lead to the erasure of distinct cultures and identities. The Western model of globalization tends to flatten differences, pushing everyone to adopt the same values, the same standards, and the same ways of life. This doesn't just dilute cultures-it erases the unique ethnic heritage that countries like Korea have worked so hard to protect. It’s about preserving a distinct cultural identity that has thrived for thousands of years without succumbing to external pressures to change. Yes, Korea faces challenges like labor shortages, and immigrants can be a part of the solution to that. But addressing these issues doesn’t require us to overhaul our entire cultural and social fabric to fit into a Westernized mold of what a country “should” look like. There’s nothing wrong with a nation valuing its own heritage and striving to maintain it. Diversity isn’t the only path to progress, and it shouldn’t be treated as some universal standard that every country must adhere to. Korea doesn’t need to apologize or conform to a Western expectation of diversity. Our homogeneity isn’t about exclusion-it’s about continuity, heritage, and a deeply rooted cultural identity that’s worth preserving. Globalization, driven by Western ideologies, often threatens that, pushing everyone to fall in line with the same set of beliefs and values. But Korea’s history, culture, and identity have survived precisely because we haven’t conformed. We’ve kept what’s ours intact, and that’s not something that needs fixing. It’s something to be respected and protected.

Even if foreigners marry Koreans, I don't know if it will have a big impact on the birth rate. I'm French, my husband is Korean and we live in Seoul. I'm confronted to the same situation as Korean women, so the problems regarding birth don't magically disappear. Actually, my situation is even more unstable than some because my contracts are yearly. If I become pregnant, obviously my companies will not renew my contracts. Also, my job prospects are very limited here compared to the locals. There is not much stability and we need two incomes to make it.

[@arinaaaarr]

6:45 he is correct... it's not the choice of a male alone to choose if they want kids. I am not Korean but I hear too many stories from Korean friends (and foreigner friends living in Korea).

Even if Korea opened its doors to foreign immigrants, I don’t think it would help the birth rate go up. If foreigners can’t get jobs to support their families nothing is going to change. With no other support measures for families from the government it would be a downgrade for foreigners to move there and start a family.. in my opinion. ✌🏻 Also, the law ist not with the foreign spouse. If life is good it might be okay, but if something happens the foreign person becomes no support whatsoever… as known, Korea has a high rate of domestic abuse… as for me and as of now, I would love to visit, but I wouldn’t stay… sry✌🏻

If they can become real Koreans, it makes sense. It means that if that were possible, most natural-born Korean citizens wouldn't worry about that. However, lots of foreign immigrants such as Chinese and Muslims wanted to make South Korea another China and Islamic nation so far. On top of that, they don't want to follow Korea's national law structure, traditional racial habits, and social vibes like Confucianism. Of course, most educated South Koreans already knew that fact, thus, about 90% of Koreans will try a massive level of protesting against immigrants. This nation, South Korea is a nation-state, a single-race nation, and for over 3000 years, this nation has been a pure Korean country. Why did Muslims and other foreign residents in Korea maintain quiet mood until now? They couldn't make loud voices in Korean society. Most of them already knew they shouldn't touch Koreans' racial sovereignty. If a few politicians and high officials start the policy that accept those foreigners, they would be impeached by raging Korean citizens in the end. Why do England guys keep massive level violence and riots against Muslim people nowadays? Guests or visitors can't become owners of another foreign country. Please don't make Koreans angry. Historically, Koreans have been fighting against foreigners' various invasion regardless of its shapes.

As a non Korean, I hope Korea doesn't accept immigrants because Korea have preserved their culture well. I wish they can still keep it up and dont let any immigrants to destroy the uniqueness. UK and France already showed you how bad it has become. Their culture is being swallowed up by multiculture and crime increased dramatically

[@xenaxenaxena28]

There is a connection between immigration failure in UK/EU/US and historical colonialism/ slavery. These regions brought foreigners to their country as slaves or as conquered people. So how could they ever expect friendly immigration in the future? But if Korea brings foreigners in for a mutual exchange of benefits, immigrants will integrate and respect Korean culture. Because Korea never harmed them or their countries in the past.

[@user-rs3ki3sp6i]

Bad intentions are here and there anytime, although We don't have such histories of colonialism. Also no one can tell who has fish intentions. I have been watching KZbinrs intentionally ask people questions framing korean as racists. There are difference between racism in asia and that in western culture. In this world, there are people who cannot tell cultural differences and don't have any intention to put effort to mingle with the local. To prevent the problems from foreigners with such attitudes, strong and strict rule on immigration policies are needed before it is active.

According to an article on a Korean newspaper I read some time ago, in 2007 60 % of respondents said they would like to see Korea become more diverse. In 2017 it came down to about 45%. It must be after the European Migrant Crisis. Since then many are aware of gang violence in Sweden and stabbings, etc. , I think nowadays it may be even lower. Street interviews are hard to make and as you can see he ended up relying on individuals from Korean diaspora. As a woman, I am very disturbed by s c by non Korean males. One nationality commits at a rate six times higher than Koreans. If I mention the nationality, I know this comment would be deleted. BBC and mainstream Korean media focus on Burning Sun and cyber stuff and so on but it is not the whole picture. Also different marriage cultures may be a big issue as you see in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK, as some ethnic groups bring in close relatives as spouses. I wont even name what relations are as YT deletes all sorts of comments. We do not practice caste, clan, "community", religious endogamy at all. It gave us a stable state without triabalist and clannish mindset you see in Africa, South Asian and the Middle East, C Asia. etc. And because these kinds of marriages, i think some bad members from certain communities tend to not see young girls as minors and you know, Europeans and British know what happens..(a polite cough).

[@christykim-tc9yy]

Koreans are known for their warm welcome to guests from around the world. However, for those considering settling in Korea, it is important to demonstrate respect for the local Korean community and abide by the rules. To become a citizen of Korea, having a Korean identity is a requirement. If this doesn't align with your plans, there are many other wonderful countries to consider. Korea is already receiving many North Korean refugees and is currently preparing to welcome 2,000,000 future refugees from the North. Furthermore, Korea is fortunate to have many ethnic Koreans from other countries who are eager to join the Korean community and live as Koreans. It's important to focus on the positive contributions of Chinese/Russian-born Koreans who are taking up jobs that locals may not be willing to do, rather than paying attention to negative media or racist remarks. Their contribution to our society is something we should appreciate.

I think even if Korea stays homogenous in looks, overtime there will still be impacts on their culture and way of thinking on the younger generations. The world is so globally connected that it is unavoidable if the countries doors are open. The newer generations will have a lot of exposure to the world that can influence their way of thinking and values. Whether that be through immigration or just tourists, traveling themselves or just technology and media. And they will also be an influence on the young generations of other countries as well. It goes both ways.

I I think the connection between immigration and colonialism/ slavery is so important. If you bring foreigners to your country as slaves or as conquered people, they will one day conquer you. That’s why western immigration is struggling. But Korea has good history with many countries. So if you bring immigrants into Korea, they come in friendship and as equals so they integrate well and maintain Korean culture.

No, No, No. My wife and I have permanent residency status in Korea. Our child was born in Korea. He has a permanent residency visa. That visa was given to him on the condition that he NEVER applies for citizenship. At birth he was denied health insurance. Why. Not racially Korean. Denying health insurance to a new born baby. Staggering. Eventually after 3 months he got health insurance. He can be born in Korea, learn Korean be raised in Korea but...... Hence we are leaving, no thanks.

I'm sure they're crying for their loss

[@jiminswriter4209]

Yes, Korea will give health insurance to foreigners after six months, but not because they are racially different. This applies to citizens and ethnic Korean non-citizens as well. Health insurance is funded by taxpayer money, mostly by Korean citizens and some foreign residents. This system has been abused by some foreign nationals from China causing a deficit of 64 billion won or nearly 47.9 million usd. This deficit that must be covered by the Korean government through taxpayer money. It is not discriminatory for the government to limit coverage to citizens and foreign residents. There have been too many cases of foreign tourists coming to Korea to abuse the insurance system without paying into it. That is why coverage is limited to citizens and foreigners who have established residency for six months.

[@georgepiet496]

@@jiminswriter4209 No. You are wrong. I've had health insurance for 20 years in Korea. I can add a a family member to my health insurance. But I can only add a family member IF my child has a visa. Immigration will not give a baby born in Korea a visa when the child is born. The child must first get a passport from onother country and then apply for a visa, get the visa, and then apply for health insurance. That took 3 months. No health insurance for a baby born in Korea for 3 months even though the parents pay for health insurance. We are not tourists. I'm a 20 year resident. The 3 month wait IS DISCRIMINATORY.

I can see how immigration could make the birth rate worse - by increasing demand on the housing market. Unless there is increased construction to match any immigration, it will make it harder for those Koreans who do want to start a family to do so. On the other hand, I believe Korea has significantly more young men than young women, and some of those young women are very vocal about wanting nothing to do with men. If it were possible for the government to encourage young women from around the world who are open to starting a family with a Korean to immigrate, this might help.

Asia is by far the most overpopulated continent, even Korea, Japan is way more population dense than your average western country, factually . Propoganda about ageing population aside, they are factually overpopulated, hence the exorbitantly high property prices. So they don't "need" more foreigners or locals or people of any race to add to these social issues they are currently facing.

[@lylelaney8270]

Then how come Canada and Australia and which is some of the biggest countries with super low population density have super high property prices. Don't forget New Zealand. Super low population density but still super high property based in price to income ratio. The problem with countries like Japan and South Korea and even Italy is that the birthrate is very low to the point of there are more death than birth. If the trend continues, they will have more ageing population who could no longer contribute to the economy of the the country and the country also have to spend more to take care of those ageing people while gaining a lot less which is economically unsustainable.

Only in the cities with high immigration are the property prices sky high in Australia and Canada. Which further proves my point. There are no jobs even for foreigners in Korea, Korea is so competitive and hard-working unlike those countries you mentioned, there's not enough good jobs even for even locals. That's the difference, Korea's labor market is oversaturated , whereas western countries need more skilled labor. Unlike westerners who have a shortage of skilled labor, korea's problem is their people are over-qualified for the jobs that are available.
