Finland is the happiest country in the world

According to the “2018 World Happiness Report” by SDSN on March 14, Finland has ranked the first among the 156 countries in the world. Nordic nations like Norway and Denmark have also taken top places, but South Korea has slipped to the 57th place, two places down from the last year’s record. In Asia, Taiwan was the happiest country, taking the 26th place. Happiness index is calculated by GDP, life expectancy, perception of corruption, and generosity of society. 




한국 57위… 두 계단 하락

세계행복지수 순위

어떤 나라 사람들이 가장 행복하다고 느낄까. 유엔 산하 기구 지속가능발전해법네트워크(SDSN)가 14일(현지 시각) 내놓은 '2018 세계행복지수' 보고서에 따르면 세계 156국 중 핀란드가 1위였다. 노르웨이·덴마크 등 북유럽 국가가 상위권을 쓸었다. 행복지수는 국내총생산(GDP), 기대수명, 부패에 대한 인식, 사회의 너그러움 등으로 산출했다. 한국은 57위로 작년(55위)보다 두 계단 하락했다. 아시아에선 대만(26위)이 가장 높았다.
