[Writing] - Dating relationships in Korean culture

1) When do people in Korea start dating? (age , grade)

 -According to the results the 2013 "Sexual Culture Research on Youth" , 41.5% of elementary school students, 37.8% of middle schoolers , 46.3% of high school students are replied that they have been loved. From this research , we can know the age which start love is lower than past.

One student who participated in research responses "these days , many student start love using 'Kakao talk' or 'Facebook'." but the age is going lower,  love period is too short in teenage culture.

2) What the typical activities couples do when they are dating? 

 - there are many difference depending on age difference.

Firstly, in teens , because they are going school, so they don't have enough time to meet. And in Korea , usually school is ended almost 6.pm , so they are going theater to watch movies or go cafe. 

Of course , typical activities couples are similar with teens and twenties. go cafe, go shopping , watching movie like that.

But twenties or thirties are little different. they are moving Farther and spending more money activities like Travel another country and drinking beer.

I think every country are doing same activities when couples meet.

3) How long do couples usually date before getting engaging?

 - I think engaging culture are not activated in korea.  

4) How long do engagements usually last?

 - pass .. i don't know ;;  

5) Are there any special traditions for dating in Korean culture?

 - I think the couple Items are the biggerst difference. For example couple shoes , couple T-shirt like that.

In Korea, many couple want to show they are loving to another people. So they wear couple Items, and going date. Of course..... I don't like couple Items :3.
