Half of Seoulites lack leisure time
One out of 2 Seoul citizens does not have enough time to enjoy hobbies and leisure activities due mainly to financial pressures and excessive workloads, a survey showed Tuesday.
According to the city-run Seoul Institute, about 50 percent of those surveyed said they do not have enough time for hobbies and leisure activities, with 12.4 percent of them saying they had “far from enough” spare time.
The survey was conducted online on 1,000 Seoulites aged 19 or over in August.
If they had enough spare time, about 35 percent said they would like to work out or have hobbies, while over 16 percent said they wanted to sleep. The other 16 percent said they would prefer to study or learn something new.
As for the main reason for the forgone leisure time, more than 42 percent picked financial pressures. That was followed by excessive working hours and housework with 32 percent. The rest said they psychologically could not afford to invest in hobbies or did not know enough about such activities.
Seoul citizens have four hours and 24 minutes a day in spare time, according to the survey.
Those in their 60s had the most time to spare with about 6.5 hours, followed by those in their 50s with 4.5 hours. Those in their 30s had the least spare time with just three hours and 19 minutes daily.
Watching TV was the most common activity that all generations preferred in their spare time, as people spent nearly two hours a day doing so on average. They used less than half an hour on social life and 14 minutes on surfing the Internet.
Those in their 30s spent the largest portion of time reading books at 11 minutes a day while other generations spent 10 minutes or less.
Other than watching TV, senior citizens preferred to take walks or rest, while those in their 20s and 30s spent time searching for information on the Internet or playing computer and mobile games.

I'm proud to be gay: Tim Cook
Apple CEO Tim Cook says he's proud to be gay. The public declaration, in an essay written for Bloomberg Businessweek, makes Cook the highest-profile business.
Cook said that while he never denied his sexuality, he never publicly acknowledged it, either. The executive said that for years he's been open with many people about his sexual orientation and that plenty of his Apple colleagues know he is gay.
Cook wrote in the column published Thursday that it wasn't an easy choice to publicly disclose that he is gay, but that he felt the acknowledgement could potentially help others.
"I've come to realize that my desire for personal privacy has been holding me back from doing something more important," he wrote.
Cook added that he considers "being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me."
The executive said he's been lucky to work for a company that "loves creativity and innovation and knows it can only flourish when you embrace people's differences."
Cook said that he will continue to focus on being the best CEO he can be and will personally continue to advocate for equality for all people. (AP)
