What is Sampo generation?

Sampo Generation is a neologism in South Korea referring to a generation that gives up courtship, marriage, and having kids. Many of the young generation in South Korea have given up those three things because of social pressures and economic problems such as increasing cost-of-living, tuition payments, and affordable housing scarcity. There is also the opo sedae, or "five giving-up generation", which takes the same three and adds employment and home ownership. The chilpo sedae further includes interpersonal relationships and hope, while the gupo sedae extends to physical health and appearance. Finally, the sippo sedae or wanpo sedae culminates in giving up life. The Sampo generation is similar to the Satori generation in Japan.
