A recent study conducted in South Korea has revealed a significant gap between the ideal number of children citizens hope to have and the actual number they end up having. According to the findings released in August, approximately seven out of 10 South Koreans believe that having children is important or maintain an ideal family size that exceeds their current or expected reality.
The findings highlight ongoing demographic challenges in South Korea, which has been grappling with persistently low birth rates. The research underscores the disparity between personal family planning aspirations and the practical factors influencing reproductive choices in the country.
