| Summary: | Instead of sitting idle at home, these seniors above 65 years old pound the pavements for cash. Faced with an aging society and a slowing economy, South Korea has the highest elderly poverty rate of all countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. Increasingly, more senior citizens in South Korea are taking up senior-friendly jobs to help ease the cost of living. Silver Quick Subway Delivery takes advantage of the transport benefits for senior citizens to create jobs for the subway couriers. Student works from GO-FAR 2017. |
