Elderly set to exceed 30% by 2034

The population of South Korean nationals residing in the country has dropped below 50 million for the first time in six years, largely due to low birth rates.

Projections suggest that by 2042, this figure may not even reach 47 million.

According to data released by Statistics Korea on April 11, the population of South Korean nationals decreased from 50,021,000 in 2022 to 49,847,000 in 2023. After surpassing the 50 million mark in 2018 with a population of 50,024,000, the figure had remained in the 50 million range for five years before dropping to the 40 million range last year.

    I would suggest you make no more comments about women in this thread if you wish to remain in this community.

        I am a mod, hence the M, and if you violate the community’s rules again, I will indeed ban you. If you don’t care, that’s up to you. If you wish for the rest of your comments to not be deleted, you’ll follow the rules as listed in the sidebar.

            I’m not sure why you don’t know how to see a community’s sidebar, but here is the rule in question:

            Since I assume you will not bother to check the terms of service, I will show those to you as well.

            What you said falls under ‘discrimination.’

            So unless you don’t care whether or not you’re on Lemmy at all, I would not talk about women that way again.

              I recognize few usernames here. One is that guy’s, and it was the second time I ever considered blocking someone for being aggravating either here or on Reddit, lmao

              I also recognize yours, and you’ve usually got great comments/posts. Seems like you’re working hard to make Lemmy lively. Thanks!
