In South Korea, a large number of 'Lovebugs' appear annually from June to July, flying around in pairs known for their mating ritual, although harmless to humans and even beneficial for pollination, many find their presence irritating. Lovebugs, mating for only a few days before perishing, originate from subtropical regions. Experts warn that due to climate change, the Korean Peninsula's climate is transitioning, attracting these insects. A recent study predicts Lovebugs will inhabit most of Northeast Asia in the next 50 years. Despite being classified as beneficial insects, public discontent has risen due to their high population in recent years, affecting outdoor dining and garnering complaints towards local authorities.
