They're probably a lot like Japan in that the women want women's lib but the men still expect women to take traditional roles. In Japan, women feel pressure to quit their careers if they get married.
South Korea now under martial law?

That is a very small part of it. If you have kids in Korea or Japan its career suicide. It will straight up ruin your career.
But at the same time South Korea's government is complaining that couples aren't having enough children...

The opposition wanted to impeach him, he declared them as North-Korean sympathizers and did a military coup. Now he can arrest these "North-Korean sympathizers" with impunity.
My western view is that the Korean people are cruel to each other.
Here in America I can hang out with a Sushi chef and marry a waitress. Or a lady doctor will marry a construction worker.
In Korea? Unless you have an MBA you are not even a human being and there are 50 other guys competing for that degree/job positions and there is only 5 spots available so you learn to be horrible and cut throats starting in middle school.
People with "regular" jobs are treated like garbage and you cant have a careen unless you putting in 80 hour work weeks.

Because the police agencies, prosecutors and judges will not. The way I understand it, the bad dudes want to do away with the good dudes and the bad dudes are the ones that over see the good dudes. (or as @Vil_Riker says)
I know some Korean's and they have never mentioned anything like that. Of course they live in Europe now
What you describe is the way wal-street works. Not so much if your a electrician or engineer? So might be similar?
My take and that of demographers - S. Korea has the same problem as Japan, China, etc. If you live in a condo with little space, both adults need to work to pay for things, and kids add no economic value (ie no free farm labor), then humans aren't stupid and have fewer of them.
Were honestly not that far behind them in this country.
Still doesn't explain there current affairs?
We do. We have 30K troops stationed there. If they weren't N. Korea would have taken over long ago.
I'm looking for a wealthy girlfriend.
Correct, we used to laugh at them but we are 20 years behind that rolling boulder.I know some Korean's and they have never mentioned anything like that. Of course they live in Europe now

Our problem is worse, instead of addressing the core issue of why its happening we simply mask the issue with immigration which creates its own problem that compounds with the people not having kids problem.
Seems that it's over. There's no support.
Kia is gonna start building tanks and Samsung is gonna launch spy satellites
So apparently the parliament voted to block the martial law. The troops at parliament are apparently leaving.
Strange affairs?

He's too tall to be Tom Cruise.
Except for the cannons and nuclear bombs and stuff.
OK. Why would CNN be biased when reporting such a thing? I mean-think about it.
Only certain no ones

I AM kind of nervous about things that can occur between now and the end of January since the country seems to have been on some strange sort of sleepy cruise control the past 4 years.
I want a wife and a girl friend
