Same story in every country sadly. Income inequality grows, people work longer and harder to make ends meet, no savings to start a family or buy a home. And politicians funneling public money into a blackhole they say is gonna fix the problem, but it ends up nowhere near its stated purpose. Remember PPP, everyone?

For South Korea though, the tone deafness is just astounding here. Like they're still at war, aren't they? They're just in a cease-fire right now. They're gonna need a steady supply of troops, and having low birthrates is gonna put them in a disadvantage when war breaks out. It's a real national security concern, yet stealing public money is more important to those in power. Just wow.
