The family lives in South Korea. O is 50 years old and she is a seafood vendor. Her husband J is 58 years old and is unemployed. O works for a total of 80 hours/week. The family lives in a one-bedroom house, which they built with the help of family and friends. They own the house and have been living here for the past 40 years. They like that the house is peaceful and in an area with clean air but they find that there are too many people where they live. The house has reliable electricity, running water, and a toilet not shared with other households. The family has to buy 99% of its food, which costs them about 60% of their income, and produces the remaining 1% themselves. They use propane fuel for cooking. Safe drinking water is available in the home. Every week, O spends an extra hour attending home agricultural activities and 15 hours doing housework. The family hardly saves any money but they sometimes go on vacation. The furthest they have ever been was Taebaek, South Korea. Their favorite item in the house is their wedding gift. The next big thing they plan to buy is a computer.
