Korea formally becomes 'super-aged' society
Korea has formally become a 'super-aged' society as the share of its population aged 65 or over surpassed 20 percent, the interior ministry said Tuesday, as the country copes with a demographic crisis of a rapidly aging population and low births.
Summary
South Korea has officially entered the “super-aged” category, with 20% of its population (10.24 million people) now aged 65 or older, according to the interior ministry.
This marks a significant demographic shift, as the nation struggles with low birth rates and a rapidly aging population.
Regions like Jeolla Province report the highest elderly percentage (27.18%), while Sejong has the lowest (11.57%).
In response, the government plans to create a population strategy ministry to address the crisis with systematic measures and long-term solutions.

while Sejong has the lowest (11.57%).
If anyone knows about this city then it’s obvious why it would be the lowest
For those who don't, why is it obvious?
I assume because it is a relatively new city planned to replace Seoul as the capital city to reduce congestion. Its population would be mostly people from outside moving into the area, and elderly people tend to be more set in their ways and less willing to take risks like moving to a newly formed city.

I got no clue man I'm high as fuck
Looks like they tried to make it the new Capital but they made a huge bunch of fuck-ups
I don't know the direct connection to birth rates. Not sure what happened but I tapped something on accident and can't read whatever most of the article says now.
true to the username 😤 that's why we hired you
I need to know
Why was the penis inspection necessary
They know their judo well
It’s a new city
Constructed to move some of the working population out of Seoul, it hasn’t been around long enough to have a large retirement age population
Don’t leave us in suspense, just tell us why.
