South Korea is grappling with the world’s lowest birth rate and is now turning to financial incentives to address its demographic challenges.

In Busan’s Saha District, a new initiative offers residents up to $38,000 to encourage dating and marriage. This program is part of a broader national strategy aimed at reversing the country’s historically low fertility rate of 0.72 children per woman.

The initiative seeks to make family life more attainable and financially viable while also creating opportunities for social connections through various events that bring together like-minded individuals.

 

By promoting marriage and family life, this program is a key component of South Korea’s effort to combat its demographic crisis and boost its population.
