>A marriage information company is operating a program that allows Korean men to stay in Japan for 2 nights and 3 days while meeting with several local women for 'matchmaking.' The company reportedly takes an initial deposit of 6 million won from the Korean male clients and collects an additional 7 million won later if the marriage is successful. A company official noted, 'In the past, many Korean-Japanese couples lived in Japan after marriage, but recently, there is a preference for residing in Korea,' adding, 'Especially if the Korean man's home is in Seoul.'
>An official from another marriage information company said, 'In recent years, the number of Korean male clients wanting to marry Japanese women has increased. The success rate of marriages has also risen,' and mentioned, 'Perhaps due to good business, there has also been a rise in Korean-Japanese marriage firms.'
>According to the National Statistical Office, cases of marriages between Korean men and Japanese women have recently surged. Last year, there were 1,178 couples formed between Korean husbands and Japanese wives, which is a 40% increase from the previous year. In contrast, marriages between Korean women and Japanese men last year amounted to only 147 couples.
