Core Viewpoint - South Korea is facing a severe low birth rate crisis, with a total fertility rate dropping to 0.72 in 2023, but there are signs of a slight rebound in 2024 and 2025, raising questions about the effectiveness of government policies aimed at increasing birth rates [6][8][23]. Group 1: Current Birth Rate Situation - East Asia, particularly South Korea, is experiencing the lowest birth rates globally, with South Korea's total fertility rate falling below 1.5 since 2015, reaching 0.72 in 2023 [6]. - In 2024, the total fertility rate is projected to increase to 0.75, with a further rise to 0.82 in the first quarter of 2025, indicating a potential recovery [8]. - Comparatively, Shanghai's birth rate is even lower, at 0.6 in 2023, and only rebounding to 0.72 in 2024, highlighting a broader regional issue [8]. Group 2: Government Initiatives to Stimulate Birth Rates - The South Korean government has implemented extensive financial support measures, including marriage subsidies that can reach up to 2 million KRW (approximately 10,000 RMB) and various child-rearing allowances [12]. - Families can receive up to 12 million KRW (approximately 62,000 RMB) in parental subsidies during the first year of a child's life, with additional support for subsequent years [12][13]. - For families using daycare services, monthly subsidies are provided, with amounts varying by age, such as 540,000 KRW (approximately 2,770 RMB) for infants [13][14].

Group 4: Societal Factors Influencing Birth Rates - The recent increase in birth rates is attributed to a rise in marriage rates post-pandemic and an increase in the population of women in their 30s, who are more likely to have children [23][24]. - Historical trends show that South Korea has experienced "baby booms" in the past, and the current demographic shift may lead to another increase in birth rates as younger generations reach childbearing age [26]. - However, the overall population structure remains concerning, with a significant decline in the youth population, which could lead to future declines in birth rates [26][28]. Group 5: Challenges and Future Outlook - Despite the recent uptick in birth rates, experts caution that this may be a temporary fluctuation rather than a sustained trend, as deeper societal issues persist [23][31]. - The South Korean government faces challenges in addressing long-standing issues such as high living costs, gender inequality, and a competitive job market, which continue to deter young couples from having children [31]. - Proposals for long-term solutions include creating a more inclusive society that offers stable employment, affordable housing, and equitable opportunities for all, rather than relying solely on financial incentives [31].
