“… 14 Efforts to improve sexual health are essential for this age group because the number of college students engaging in sexual activities is increasing while the age sex initiation is decreasing. 16 Furthermore, because of increased curiosity and exploration of sexual behaviors, they may also be at a higher risk of negative health outcomes. 17 Research has shown that people under the age of 25 years are vulnerable because they often engage in risky sexual activities such as having multiple sexual partners.…”

Purpose To date, no studies have examined the association between gender-driven power dynamics and the decision-making process for condom use in South Korea. This study aimed to identify predictors of condom-use behaviors among female emerging adults in South Korea. Participants and Methods This study used a cross-sectional design and recruitment was conducted using social network services. The participants comprised 169 female college students aged 18‒25 years who were actively engaging in sexual intercourse. Results The results showed that attitudes toward condom use was a stronger predictor of condom-use behaviors than sexual double standards. A significant implication of this study is the need for novel approaches to address condom use in female emerging adults. Potential approaches should consider gender dynamics and have cultural and social relevance for South Korean society. Conclusion The current findings offer insight into developing future interventions tailored to the population to promote condom use, thereby preventing STDs/HIV, unwanted pregnancies, abortions, and other negative consequences in female emerging adults in South Korea.

“…As young adults may be highly emotional and have opportunities to make dangerous sexual choices in situations where they face strong temptations, young people may experience more difficulties in controlling their sexual curiosity and desires than those in other age groups [2]. Furthermore, young people who are not ready for safe sexual relationships are considered to be a high-risk group for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), as the number of college students who have had sexual intercourse is increasing, the age at first sexual intercourse is decreasing [3], and college students can participate in various dangerous sexual activities [4]. According to the results of one study, people under the age of 25 are at a higher risk of exposure to STIs because they have more frequent changes in partners than do people in other age groups [5].…”

Purpose: The purpose of this study was (a) to synthesize studies of condom use among South Korean college students, and (b) to appraise the quality of each article using Gough's weight of evidence.Methods: Studies published in English and Korean were searched in electronic databases using the terms "student or college student or university student or undergraduate", "condom", and "Korea*".Results: Twenty studies met the inclusion criteria, showed appropriate quality, and were therefore selected for review. The variables related to condom use were measured in terms of condom-related factors, factors related to non-condom-related knowledge and attitudes, and other factors. Knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy were associated with condom use, and there were differences in condom-related factors among men and women.Conclusion: Based on these findings, it was confirmed that sexual education is needed for both men and women to promote condom use. Education on condom use should not only focus directly on condoms, but should also address other aspects of knowledge and attitudes to influence health beliefs. In addition, developing educational programs targeting adolescents and parents will have a positive effect on college students' condom use.
