People in South Korea are feeling death to understand life better. In the last seven years, around 25,000 people have gone through the funeral process while alive. In fact, 'Living Funeral' was started by Hovon Healing Company in 2012. The company claims that people are coming to us voluntarily. They hope that they can improve their lives by realizing death before the end of life.
75-year-old Cho Jae-hee said, "Once you feel the death, you get alerted. Then you take a new approach in life." Cho recently experienced 'Living Funeral' at the Hyvon Healing Center's 'Dying Well' program. People from 15 to 75 years of age participated in it. These people lay in a closed coffin and lay down in a closed coffin. Earlier photos of her funeral were taken and she wrote her last wish. The center says that all rituals are performed during this time, which occur at the time of the actual death of a person.
The student said - he understood himself -
Choi Jin-kyu, a 28-year-old student involved in the program, said, "I understood myself inside the coffin. I felt that I often saw others as my competitor. When I was in the coffin, I thought that what is it used for." Choi said that I saw that I was planning to start my own business after graduation instead of going to the job market.
Professor Yu Yoon-seol, a doctor in the pathology department of Asan Medical Center, said that learning and preparing for death is important even at an early age. Yu has written a book on death.
Suicide rate higher in South Korea
South Korea ranks 33rd in the survey of 40 countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Developments Better Life Index. South Koreans have high hopes for education and employment, which is falling from a poor economy and rising unemployment. According to the World Health Organization, the suicide rate in South Korea in 2016 was 20.2 per 100,000 people, almost double the global average (10.53).
