Abstract
This study was conducted to find out about the marriage views of single women in their 20s and 30s. Six research participants living in the metropolitan area were recruited and interviewed using an open and semi-structured questionnaire, and the interview data was analyzed according to Giorgi's phenomenological analysis method. As a result of the analysis, there were 5 categories, 12 topic groups, and 34 categories: 'Thoughts about marriage', 'Thoughts about spouse', 'Thoughts about marriage preparation', 'Thoughts about parenthood', and 'Acceptance of various family types'. The study participants' views on marriage were changing, unlike the older generation, and they were experiencing realistic barriers to marriage. Through this study, we learned about the actual thoughts of single women in their 20s and 30s about their views on marriage. Furthermore, the significance of this study is that it increases understanding of changes in single women's views on marriage and examines implications for future marriage, childbirth, and family policies.
