Generation MZ is key to ESG era
Generation MZ - a term referring to both Millennials and the Gen Z generation in Korea - now takes up 40 percent of the entire South Korean population. Born between 1981 and 2010, the generation's impact across Korean society has been increasing. Some of them hold leadership positions in major political parties; others earned a spot in the C-suite of major corporations. The story of Gen MZ as a successful trendsetter in society is no longer foreign to Korea.

“No K-pop on a Dead Planet” is one of the primary campaigns on “Kpop4Planet,” a digital platform created by K-pop fans to fight for climate justice. “Generation MZ,” a Korean term referring to Millennials and Generation Z, accounts for most K-pop fans, and this generation is greatly exposed to the future harms of climate change.
