South Korea ranks first in the world for “low births”…Growth rate will drop below “0%” in 2050

“If South Korea is unable to raise its birth rate, which is currently the lowest in the world, the growth rate will fall below 0% around 2050, and the total population will reach 40 million people as early as 2070.

At 0.81 people, it is the lowest among OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) member countries, and the lowest among 217 countries and regions after Hong Kong (0.77 people).

It is predicted that the number of people will fall to less than 40 million. Furthermore, ``The possibility that the growth rate will fall below 0% due to the effects of low birthrates and an aging population is 50.4% in 2050 and 50.4% in 2059.''
This is expected to rise to 79%." Furthermore, there are concerns that ``the rapid aging of the population will not only cause a decline in the growth rate, but will also increase the problem of poverty among the elderly and inequality in income and consumption across society as a whole.''
