A survey focused on individuals considering remarriage identified wrinkles and obesity as the most concerning aspects of appearance for men and women, respectively.

South Korean marriage information companies Only You and Bien-Aller released the results of a survey conducted on September 16 and 21. The survey included 516 divorced individuals (258 men and 258 women).

When asked which aspects of a potential remarriage partner’s appearance were often disappointing, 30.2% of male respondents cited wrinkles as their top concern. They were followed by complications from plastic surgery (25.7%), obesity (21.3%), and hair loss or graying hair (14.3%).

Among women, 33.3% pointed to obesity as their top concern. This was followed by hair loss or graying hair (25.2%), being too slender (21.7%), and wrinkles (16.7%).

In response to these findings, Son Dong Kyu, the CEO of OnlyYou, noted, “While choosing a remarriage partner should focus on the inner qualities, one cannot ignore the importance of physical appearance, which significantly influences first impressions. In an era that values visual aspects, individuals must pay attention to their appearance.”

Meanwhile, when asked how the appearance of a remarriage partner might impact married life, both men and women most frequently selected more frequent couple outings together (32.6% of men, 31.4% of women).

Men felt it would boost their self-esteem (26.7%) and help maintain affection over a long period (22.5%). Conversely, women selected maintaining affection over a long period (27.1%) and increasing self-esteem (24.8%) as their top responses.

The survey also revealed that women are more likely to be profoundly disappointed if they remarry based on physical attraction, only to be disillusioned by their partner’s character. While 29.5% of men considered it a just consequence, 31.4% of women expressed deep regret over their own foolishness.

Subsequently, men noted they would blame themselves, thinking “what might happen actually happened” (26.7%) and feel regret over their foolishness (23.6%). Women were more likely to believe it was a just consequence (27.5%) and blame themselves similarly (23.3%).
