Incheon Metropolitan City is implementing various social support initiatives targeting young adults and newlyweds.

In September, the city announced recruitment for its second ‘Incheon Unmarried Men and Women Meeting’ program. The initiative, which includes dating coaching and social events, aims to assist young adults aged 24 to 39 who face difficulties meeting new people. The program follows a highly competitive first half of the year that saw a 58% couple matching rate.

Additionally, the city is providing housing brokerage subsidies to alleviate financial burdens for youth and newlyweds. As of late September, approximately 92 million won has been distributed to 381 households. The majority of beneficiaries are youth aged 18 to 39, with the highest number of applications originating from Bupyeong-gu, Namdong-gu, and Seo-gu.
