In 2072, 1 out of 3 working-age people in South Korea will be foreigners.

An analysis has been published stating that ``In 2072, one out of every three working-age people in South Korea will be a foreigner.'' ``For the next 50 years, up to 96,000 foreigners will enter South Korea every year.''
The analysis was based on the assumption that the worst-case birth rate scenario would become a reality. According to the ``Results of the 2022 Population and Housing Survey'' by Statistics Korea, the number of foreigners as of November last year
The population of the country is 1,752,000. Of this number, the number of people aged 15 to 64, who are of productive age, was estimated to be 1,562,000. This is the total working age population in South Korea of 3668
This figure corresponds to 4.3% of the 6,000 people. The number of foreigners staying in Korea is rapidly increasing. The number of foreigners, which was 1,364,000 in 2015, has decreased in seven years.
The number of people increased by 28.5% to over 1.7 million people. This trend of increasing number of foreigners is expected to continue. “Future population projections: 2022-2072” announced on the 14th of this month
According to the 2016 report, net international migration of foreigners is expected to maintain an average of 96,000 people each year (high-end estimate) for the next 50 years.
In a situation where this trend is maintained, a pessimistic scenario regarding the birth rate and expected life expectancy (low birth rate)
If the lower estimation standard for expected life expectancy becomes a reality, the working-age population in 2072 is estimated to fall to 16.67 million.
On the other hand, the percentage of foreigners will rise to 36.7%. In 50 years, ``one in three people of working age will be a foreigner.''
