Everyone, have you ever felt'regret' in your life?

What about after Corona 19?

It seems that there are many people who are curious about the difference between'anger' and'regret'.



Each dictionary definition of resentment and anger is:




In fact, even if you read the dictionary definition, it's difficult to tell the difference in detail.

Since 2018 measures the resentment of the Korea Society and yumyeongsun professor of Seoul National University, Graduate School of Public Health Continuing research is

resentment Iran, unjust and while the person who was considered to have one offensive experiencing the difficulties and suffering for justice and fair was the original harbor

Explain that it is

an emotion in

which

basic beliefs break down, and along with anger, you feel there is no answer and hopelessness

.




Professor Yu Myung-soon of the Graduate School of Public Health at Seoul National University is a scholar who studies health care organizations and health communication.

Professor Myung-soon Myung-soon, who is constantly looking into the health of individuals and society, paying attention to resentment as one of the emotions that can appear in a society where daily wear and tear is large and accumulated. Has been announced.





6 out of 10 patients with chronic resentment



According to the results of the 2021 Korean society's resentment survey published by Professor Yu Myung-soon on the 21st of last month, Seoul National University Graduate School of Health, (1.58 points in 2020).



It was found that the percentage of'normal', which means no resentment, was lowered, and

58.2% of the people were in a'chronic resentment' state that experienced moderate or severe resentment

. This figure is 10.9 percentage points higher than in 2020 (47.3%), and it is the highest percentage of the group experiencing'chronic resentment (moderate + severe resentment)' among many years of surveys.



Prof. Myung-soon Lee

analyzed the results as "a result that supports the fact that

the'experience of resentment'

in the minds of ordinary people living in Korean society

is not just once but'persisted'."

It is more than six times higher than that,” he warns of the danger.



What has risen sharply from 5 to 1 in resentment?



However, there is another aspect that stands out from the results of this survey.

It

is a

change

in

the ranking of the resentment felt in social and political issues

. In addition to the resentment caused by negative life events such as divorce and dismissal, the “Resentment of Korean Society”, which started in 2018, has measured the social and political'social resentment' we encounter while living in the world.

'Political and political party immorality and corruption', which was ranked 5th in the 2018 survey, jumped to the top.



Even if you look closely at each age, the results are the same.

Although the detailed figures are slightly different, it was found that people in their

twenties, thirties, forties, and fifties and above all have the greatest resentment from'political and political immorality and corruption.

Professor Myung-soon Myung-soon, who oversees the resentment research, said that the social and political resentment issue (political and political party immorality and corruption) that increased significantly in 2021 was

"in the future, in order to reduce the'social resentment', we were able to take a peek at which aspects to increase justice and fairness. "There is a desperate need for social efforts to reduce resentment and prevent resentment by fostering the capacity of affirmation, recognition, and fairness for the health of individuals and society

."



The results of the survey on the fairness of Korean society also support Professor Yoo's argument.

The percentage of responding that politicians' activities were'unfair' was 81.8%, which is much higher than other items.
