South Korean singles look for love at Buddhist retreat
At a temple on South Korea’s northeastern coast, young singles are taking a different approach to dating. Blindfolded trust walks, tea sessions and shared activities are all part of a matchmaking retreat designed to help strangers build meaningful connections, and perhaps find love.
The Korean Buddhist Foundation for Social Welfare launched its blind date programe in 2023 to help tackle the country’s low birthrate, the world’s lowest, by bringing young singles together.
