Q1. What are the functions of the family?

The family acts as the primary social institution. When a person is born, they first learn about society through their family. And through the very basis of the family, society is maintained and prosperous.

Q2. Some Korean men marry women in other countries. How can we explain this phenomenon?

There are many international marriages especially in rural areas in Korea. In Korea, the ratio of men to women is higher than that of women, so it is not always possible for Korean people to get married. That is why in rural areas, where the percentage of women is small, people from other countries often marry.
