Summary
South Korea is facing a labor shortage due to decades of low birth rates and population decline. By 2032, the country will need over 890,000 additional workers to sustain its 2% economic growth target. However, with 95% of the population being ethnically Korean, public opinion on immigration remains divided. This second part of the series explores whether immigration can fill the labor gap and what challenges lie ahead.
