Abstract

There are a plethora of studies on globalization, yet few studies have examined the overall effects of globalization on Korea. Thus, in this study, we investigated the overall effects of globalization on Korea's economy, society, language, and culture. The Korean economy enjoyed further growth as globalization facilitated trade expansion. Yet, income inequality and wealth gap deteriorated. Globalization is expanding generational gap as the younger generation introduces changes in language usage. Social culture is altering from Confucianism and collectivism to individualism and materialism particularly among young people. International marriages raise many social issues as well. Children born in international or interethnic couple experience serious identity confusion, requiring the government's and society's support. Gender equality and low childbirth are serious problems for future economic growth. In summary, globalization helped Korea's economic growth, yet introduced many other issues.

全球化对韩国的影响

关于全球化的研究很多，但很少有研究考察全球化对韩国的整体影响。因此，在本研究中，我们调查了全球化对韩国经济、社会、语言和文化的整体影响。随着全球化的推进，韩国经济得到了进一步的发展。然而，收入不平等和贫富差距进一步恶化。随着年轻一代对语言使用的改变，全球化正在扩大代沟。社会文化正在从儒家思想和集体主义转向个人主义和物质主义，特别是在年轻人中。跨国婚姻也引发了许多社会问题。跨国或跨民族夫妇所生子女存在严重的身份困惑，需要政府和社会的支持。性别平等和低生育率是未来经济增长的严重问题。综上所述，全球化对韩国的经济增长有所帮助，但也带来了许多其他问题。
