Over 65% of respondents to a recent survey answered in favor of declaring Parents' Day a national holiday in Korea.
That number was below the number of respondents last year who were in favor of making Constitution Day a holiday again. Overall, men were more in favor of the change than women, by a margin of about 10 percentage points.
Several petitions have popped up on Cheong Wa Dae's official petition site, with some even making calls to combine Children's Day and Parents' Day into a single "Family Day" holiday.
