Claim: The population of Seoul, South Korea, is about 38 million people. Considered one of the most innovative countries in the world, South Korea is surrounded by the Sea of Japan, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea and shares a land border with North Korea.
The UN predicts South Korea’s population will peak in around 2024, and then start to fall. Statistics taken by the government show that Seoul’s population passed the 10 million mark near the end of 1988. Such a senior population would threaten South Korea’s workforce, economy, and military capabilities. Most of the growth was as a result of migration with natural increase playing a smaller role in this change. The UN predicts South Korea’s population will peak in around 2024, and then start to fall. The country’s population has boomed since the 1960s, almost doubling in size from just over 25 million to almost 52 million. In the late 1980s, squatter areas which contained one-story shacks still existed in different parts of Seoul. High-rise apartments were constructed in order to help alleviate housing shortages. However, they differentiate themselves from many other nations because of how well people of all belief systems coexist peacefully.Since 2009, South Korea has improved its record for having the world's lowest birthrate. By 2100, the UN forecasts South Korea’s population will be only around 29 million … Today, South Korea has a $1.6 trillion economy – the As South Korea has transformed so too has its population, and very quickly at that, leaving the country in a true population paradox.It is undergoing an extreme, rapid example of what demographers call the ‘Women aren’t having enough children in South Korea to stabilise its population without migration (Credit: Valentina d'Efilippo)South Korea has the lowest fertility rate in the world.The average South Korean woman has just 1.1 children, lower than any other country. Singapore, which has a population of 5.8 million, had 55,497 cases and 27 deaths. The land area covers 99,392 square kilometers (or 38,375.46 square miles) and this small area (in combination with staggering population numbers) contributes to the fact that South Korea is known as for its population density, which is more than 10 times the global average. The largest cities, according to statistics taken in 1895, were Busan (3.5 million inhabitants), Seoul (9.6 million), Daegu (2.03 million), Gwangju (0.9 million), Incheon (1.4 million) and Daejeon (0.86 million).
This means that South Korea’s population future could shake out right as predicted – or look very different altogether. When countries undergo economic change, the effects of the transition aren’t only financial – they have major population implications, too.This is very much the case in South Korea where, over the last three generations, the country has evolved like few others due to rapid industrialisation. Surveys taken show that seeking a new job or a job transfer were the major reasons that new immigrants gave for moving. The average baby born in South Korea can expect to live to the age of 82 years (specifically 79 for men, and 85 for women).In contrast, the global average is 72 years (nearly 70 for men, 74 for women).And the UN projects life expectancy will continue to improve; by the end of this century, the average baby born in South Korea will live to the age of 92 (89 for men, and 95 for women). Many immigrants also cited education and convenience as factors in moving to the capital.The population of Seoul made up 23.8% of South Korea’s population in 1985. By the mid-2060s, the UN forecasts the percentage of those older than 65s will peak at more than 40%.
Today, the numbers look radically different. The UN estimates the July 1, 2020 population at 51,269,185. Almost half of South Korea is expected to be over the age of 65 by 2065. Physician density is at approximately 2.3 per 1,000 individuals residing in the country, and hospital beds are at 11.5 available per 1,000 residents.Korea isn't a particularly religious nation, with only 44% of the population stating they having a faith. Figures from the census show that the population of Ulsan increased eighteen times, with an increase of 521,300 inhabitants from 1960 to 1985. Today, that number is at 15%. Housing for most of the population, bar the wealthiest, was generally cramped. However, there has been greater growth in the provincial cities as compared to the capital, especially in the southeastern coastal area, which includes Pohang, Pusan, Ulsan, Chinhae, Yeosu, and Masan.
