It's very ironic the 2 most different countries in both economically and ideologically share the same name an border.

They are not so different at all. Both run on command economies, both consider their citizens serfs and both are still using a clan system. The only different is, that the North has one major clan, the south has like 5-10ish.

Their education system is directed for working for the Chaebols

The math part is overhyped. I imagine Singaporean high schools have the hardest tests on average (whatever that means lol) but it’s all in the range of understandable. Saying godlike etc is bs it’s public high schools not math Olympiad. You are just cIapped at math my friend.

I was forced to do this by white parents in the west but i was defo not the norm. Fell into severe depression. Now imagine a countey where all parents and institutions are like that to the kids, like my crazy mom side of family(dad's was nuts too but in different way). Absolutely logical that their youth is flying off high story buildings. Sorry for sounding insensitive but i was gonna suicide many times before j stopped myself. This type of stressful upbringing kills a child's drive for life young.

US is not interested in Korea anymore it is not important for them geopolitically that is why u r facing this crisis, US controls the worlds finance earlier it was very important because communism capitalism fighting Russia China now not so more. US has managed to engineer the gender divide using media and do Christian conversion which will ensure the country cannot be rallied using single ideology or objective as it now has controls over certain factions this will ensure even in future SK is not a threat. No country in recent history has become rich without the US needing them to be rich be it Japan, Germany, Taiwan.

Land value tax would fix this.

Korea is 1000x worse but i see that in my home country of Bulgaria. Sofia the capital for a wage, comparable to the west and still times lower. But Sofia is the closest to bare minimum. Rest of country is a sinking ship. But no infrastructure and opportunities to keep the kids in shitty areas and they move out logically. And housing prices are like quarter million us dollars for a building built during communism.

And yes only the richest in Sofia live like a comfy german. 90% dont know if they, their kids or old parents will die by shit hospital, horrible car culture, no law so chance your killer might be safe if he is the right person. So 90% are manipulated to hate the 5% and are miserable. And institutions want it that way.

But there is hope Since Korea has excellent human resources as a result of hardening education, it is now necessary to pursue the active use of talent in the right place and in the right place. In addition, the elderly poverty and the suicide rate of the elderly should be carefully approached as policy works It is ironic that the elderly employment rate is the number one in the OECD and the elderly poverty rate is also the number one. And what are Korea's advantages for Korea to develop further? Know this accurately and improve the disadvantages while maximizing the advantages. There are side effects of compressed growth, but as Korea has grown rapidly, citizens' consciousness and political system have developed to some extent The following data may be helpful in training Korea. The best rankings should be maximized and supplemented. According to the British Economist's democracy index, Korea is ranked 16th out of 167 countries surveyed by 2021, higher than Japan, Austria, the United States and France. Next, the Public Integrity Index, which objectively measures corruption in a society, shows that Korea is higher than Japan and Belgium among 117 countries surveyed (out of 200 countries), 18 mandates similar to Luxembourg and Costa Rica The data is published annually by the European Centre for Anti-Corruption Capabilities. As of 2022, Korea is ranked 43rd out of 180 countries surveyed. It is similar to the 42nd ranked US, 58th ranked Japan, 72nd ranked Italy and Israel. Last year, it was higher than Taiwan and the United States. However, the ranking of media credibility is close to the bottom of major countries with the US and France According to the data evaluating the competitiveness of the cultural field, Korea ranked second in the world in the soft power ranking announced by Monocle of Germany And in the data released by the UK agency, 19th place between Balgie and Ireland! The country's credit rating is third in the world (higher than the US and UK), and the innovation index, which assesses how innovative a country is, is announced separately by the European Union and Bloomberg Communications. R & D spending is the No. 1 OECD and e-government competitiveness is the No. 1 OECD Next, let's look at how mature the society is (including civic consciousness) and how the quality of life is measured. According to the Social Development Index, which shows how advanced society is, Korea is higher than the US, Singapore, Italy, UK and Israel by 2021, and 16th place similar to Belgium and Luxembourg In detail, it ranked 5th in personal safety, 5th in health and welfare, 1st in information and communication accessibility, and 1st in higher education accessibility among 200 countries. It is ranked 19th in nutrition and medical support, 26th in water and sanitation facilities, 25th in individual rights, 30th in individual freedom and choice, 32nd in residential environment, and 26th in basic knowledge accessibility. These are also high, but it is a little ambiguous to say good? The environment is 80 delegates due to the neighboring country (details are brought as of 2020) According to the Human Development Index, which assesses the development level of the people based on average life expectancy, education level, per capita income, etc., Korea was higher than Luxembourg in Europe in 2020 and 19th in the last year Britain was ranked 18th and Austria, the US, Spain, Italy and France were ranked lower than South Korea This data is published annually by the United Nations Organization. There is a separate ranking of human development indexes that reflect inequality. Based on this data, Korea ranked 21st higher than other developed countries such as France, USA, Singapore, Hong Kong and Israel In the 2021 World's Best Country Rankings released by US News, Korea ranked 15th among Norway, Denmark, Italy and Finland among 200 countries In detail, it ranked 18th in quality of life, 8th in dynamism, 6th in innovation, 7th in cultural influence, 5th in entrepreneurship In terms of quality of life, public education development is 74, economic stability is 85, job quality is 64, public health system is 55.7 However, family stability and price stability are low, and animal rights are only 18 out of 100 points. In addition, in the OECD Better Life Index, Korea is ranked 28th overall in 2020 (out of 37 countries). In detail, it is ranked 5th in housing quality and accessibility, 2nd in citizen participation, 11th in education and technology, 17th in quality and availability, and 14th in social equality Income is 22nd and safety is 24th, which is normal (recently rising to 11th) In the questionnaire survey on health, which is a subjective item here, the response is very negative, so the overall ranking is not high The Vulnerable Country Index, which shows how stable a country is in many areas, shows that Korea is in a very stable group with France and Belgium, and is higher than the stable group with the United States and Britain This data shows that the criteria for calculation are power struggle, social division, illegal election, minority suppression, recession, manpower outflow, development imbalance, education, public transportation, security, infrastructure, health, religious freedom and civil liberties, Other human rights, establishment and practice of the rule of law, population stability, national credit rating, etc. Finally, let's look at materials that are difficult to categorize as specific items. According to the Economic Freedom Index, which measures how economic freedom and legal stability are guaranteed, Korea ranked 27th among 177 countries between Sweden, Norway and Malaysia in 2016 It is currently ranked 25th, higher than Japan, which ranked 30th, and France, which ranked 64th.

wont be any of you left in 80 years.

Not quite, it's a lot more complicated than that. There a little something called productivity growth(which is the main thing to counteract aging population) which as it so happens korea has one of the highest rates of in any developed country + potential for even more. This definitely won't completely solve the crisis but it will be more than enough to maintain good living conditions and ok economic growth. As for dependency ratio, the national pension isn't estimated to run out until 2070. The reason for this is that it is currently running on excess and has been for a long time cuz not that many people are using it as of now(ofc the downside of this is the massive elderly poverty rate). Plus the current rate of tax contribution toward it is way below average and if the government decides to increase it by even 5%(which is still cheaper than most other developed nations), it won't ever run out.

@@LimeBoy-oo6ph It's a bit of a long story, but basically, he and his mom (double doctorate in music) came to Berlin because of his older sister, who was already a genius harp player at age 13-14. So she got some opportunities with the Berlin Philharmonic/UDK (Universität der Künste, one of the best art schools in Europe, apparently). At that time, when moving to Germany, kids coming in from abroad had to go to so-called 'Greeting schools' - either they didn't have time to apply him for anything else, or his mom was hoping it would be ok (generally, those schools are a bit more specialised, in order to help the children integrate more easily). It was not. This was in the early aftermath of the refugee wave from Syria, so the school was full of kids that didn't want to be there and were lashing out at the one asian kid. Plus, the teachers turned out to be shit, so he got mistreated on that front, as well. Which would all cause his Tourette's to get worse, leading to more bullying. So his mom kept him away and went to talk to them multiple times. Finally, they called a hearing in the school, where she told them she wants the pull him out of there. However, in Germany it is illegal so much so that you can get fined and PROSECUTED if you keep your kid out of school long enough. So the staff there, sticks up their asses and all, wouldn't make an exception for him, AND ALSO threatened her they would alert the authorities, should she be unable to get him into a new school in a very limited amount of time. I was already teaching him at that point, but we kicked things into high gear once we found out about it. He'd also started a treatment for the Tourette's, so we pulled through, all together.

Please stay in Canada permenantely.

If you are young and just getting started, I think you can get a lot more job opportunities abroad for the same amount of effort. If you have a good amount of money saved up for retirement, South Korea is a great place to live (fast delivery, good transportation, fast government workers/services, good internet, good facilities and sports programs for the elderly, easily accessible medical care, etc)

I don’t want to be a Chinese rooter but I think that both S.Korea and Japan will fall under Chinese influence someday. China will not controll both countries but both countries will be more dependent on China, rather than US. I mean in past history, China has been the dominant power in East-Asia for centuries so I don’t see it being changed. The day China changes its political views will mark the day when China becomes really the country of the center, when Japan and S.Korea will collaborate more with China than US

"time is tending to make the younger generations of each nation more favourable to each nation" Nah, in South Korea hatred towards Japan is a national project. It won't go away. There is a short video here on youtube where a young Korean guy burns the Japanese flag (don't remember the modern one or the rising sun one). That video has MILLIONS of views. I'm Russian, and although there definitely are TONS of propaganda in schools (most of it is anti-US though, not anti-Germany), most young people just hate our own government, not US or Germany. The word "patriotism" was HEAVILY mocked, as nationality, religion, duty, war heroes - all that bullsh1t is what's typically used in propaganda. When I learned around 5 years ago that Koreans legit hate Japan and sit on their isolationist naver, I was in shock.

No. like it is, we are no different. the fun thing is, in recent research conducted shows that Japan is not even in top 3 hated country. but China/Russia is. as you can see there is no such thing as "national project" for hatred, the current geopolitical situation is what mostly decides it.

​@@haplol7267We are not seeking success. We need to study 15 hours a day to get a good grade and go to a good university through the CSAT. Nevertheless, an average of 75 percent of them are employed by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). However, with the average house price of 1 billion won in Korea, young people with an average annual salary of 30 million won have to work for about 30 years. This is why they have to study harder than 15 hours to get a better job at a conglomerate. We have neither tourism nor natural resources like Europe nor natural resources like Saudi Arabia and Russia. This does not mean that we will not slow down growth through human resources, as long as we do not grow like Central Asia, because we may be invaded again by China or Japan.

That made me wonder. two of Korean best known production, Parasite and Squid Games, have the same premises; people with financial struggle doing everything they can to survive.

But in the other hand, we can find that we are miserable and suffering all time. I mean, other countries has suffers too but, we always have short and small golden ages. Even we are having a glorious and the most powerful age in all South Korean history, but it hasn't even been 100 years and we have to end it, Diving in to New Dark Age.

Honestly not surprised to know that the school/academy cultures didn't change from when I was in. We're stubborn in a way that we know the problems yet we leave them be, because changing it will simply cost more and won't guarantee better net income. While most kids are taught with a competitive mindset and are forced to take the paths chosen by their parents from the start, I was lucky to have my parents let me choose my ways. I hated competition, I hated how schools worked, and I was confident that I can do better without their effort to turn me around. English at schools, for example, is taught in more of an academic way. The exam papers are full of questions about grammar. And if you don't get a good score out of that, you're labeled just bad at English. Kids are forced to learn that way as well, alongside after school academies that teach in the exact same way in most cases. Veering off the course is simply being insubordinate, and getting 4 hours of sleep a day is considered normal. I ignored all of that. I learned my English in my own way through the internet, and the only part I lacked was speaking because native speakers are hard to find in this country. I'd often get flying scores in the exams, not because I learned everything they taught me, but because I picked it up as a language, not a subject. I'd often get questioned how I achieve that, and I don't answer. Learning English through internet and gaming is something out of the world for most teachers' mind. Now I'm out of my university, looking for a job not just in this country but also abroad. I often talk to my friends from all around the world, hearing their opinions on different matters, and sometimes gaming together. This language alone opened up so many more possibilities for me, and I hope more kids get to experience it. Korean is not used anywhere else than Korea, while English is used worldwide. It just might help them see problems from other directions.

@@R_Grey032 I like the fact that you learn English on the Internet😁 Same here, and I'm even learning programming languages for my future opportunities. Learning how to program online is possible as well😎

Immigration works, but that requires considerable cultural concessions. Something Korea and Japan are very afraid of.

At the end of the day a country's fortunes change as time goes on. This has always been true of people and in history. Great empires rise and fall. Countries enter a golden age and enter a dark age. It's all a part of history. It's just really gonna suck for the young Koreans who has wealth when they are born but has to go through a steep decline in their lifetime. This is basically the same cliche story of a kid growing up in a wealthy family but as soon as his parents die he finds out that their wealth was all on borrowed money and he is on the hook for paying the creditors. He can declare bankruptcy but it's also gonna suck when he has to apply for a mortgage. BTW this doesn't just apply to Korea but other western countries. They are all consuming more than they produce. It's all gonna catch up to them soon. The only sad part is the overconsumers will die fat and happy whereas their kids will have to suffer the consequences. I only hope that the collapse will happen after I die but it doesn't look my wishes will come true.

@@flutterwind7686Something that you should be very careful with. From a Swede.

@@flutterwind7686 immigration is only a temporary plaster over much larger issue. Many underdeveloped countries outside of Africa and Middle East are already nearing birth rates of 2.1, eventually these countries themselves will run into problems. Most of South Asia will start loosing people in 25 years, SE Asia maybe 10-15 years, so this is not a good solution long term. Eventually I think humans will need to accept that population can't always keep growing or remain stable, it'll decline once countries develop, and should design their social security structures keeping this in mind. But politicians can't think beyond the next election cycle

Its a myth that economic difficulties will lead to fewer kids - in every country that has tried financual incentives to make people have more kids, its failed every time. Its not about finances at all (indeed, this is why poorest countries in the world have many kids with no problems), but rather its about the mindsets women have towrds families and childbirth

Yup. The U.S. and Japan are also increasing their collaborations with their militaries.

Agreed, and it should be noted we’re not moving away from Europe per se, just allowing France and Germany to take the more leading role on the continent while we fill in their deficits in the East where Washington is more respected than Brussels. But America’s closest modern allies are in the East - Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia (hopefully Vietnam soon) are all critical partners in America’s larger geostrategic gameplan

@@Serching4JerryGarcia Yes, but mainly only the U.S. and Japan, Japan has got some really amazing people who managed to deal with both the Dems and the Reps.

"Asia" is a large place. In the long run US will find it very difficult(not impossible, but still) to defend all of its focus points in the region. And let's be honest, SK is kind of low when it comes in US priority within Asia : their strategic/diplomatic/symbolic importance lacks when compared to Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, India, Vietnam, Aus/NZ (not really 'Asia' but still well within the theatre). Also the US also has to keep its influence in Europe and the Americas as well, so SK is fairly low on the priorities list. If things get sour SK is probably one of the first for the US to withdraw from in order to cut losses and/or focus on a more effective strategic point. This is made even more evident by the fact that South Korea is pretty much helpless even if the US decides to completely neglect it - no way for SK to bite back by joining China or something due to its insane level of Sinophobia.

Could be used as a astroid mining hub and with enough time agriculture (does not need to deal with pesky environmental and biodiversty laws)

The 3 things you said resources/trade, defend and population are the 3 fundamental elements to create any civilizations. First, in order to create a place for people to live, you will need to create products that people could use. If you have the resource, people will automatically choose to live in that place to enjoy the resource. If the place is the middleman to trade between other places with different resources, people will live there to enjoy resources from multiple places (trade). Both 2 ways have their own advantages and disadvantages. Then, you will need defensible position to defend the products. If you have defend but no resources/trade, probably no one will live there. (Looking at Northern Canada and Siberia) Finally, an ideology. People in that civilization needs to have the same belief so that even when you fail to protect the land and your products, your people with that belief will try to revive their own civilization. (That's why India and China despite being conquered so many times in history still remained as a civilization while... Rome despite being born at the same time as those 2, broke apart into Europe) About Mars... I think the first step of human colony on Mars would be a mining colony. Extracting resources from Mars like minerals and then ship them back to Earth is much easier than say... producing Iphone there.

@@Ruiseal bro you dont understand jack shit about science or the economy

It would be too hard and pointless to invade a Mars colony. Even if their home country is destroyed the conqueror would benefit more from keeping them alive than killing them. Maybe replace the workers over time and that would be it. If you want a sci fi scenario play Infinite Warfare lol

It did exactly what they wanted it to, but as the video shows, that did not come without serious long term cost.

The difference is that in Japan zaibatsu were dismantled a long time ago and the companies are much more diverse now (for instance a company such as Mitsubishi electric and Mitsubishi motors is completely separately run even though they share a similar name)

That's where they got the idea from. "Chaebol" is literally the Korean translation of zaibatsu, and the strategy was used on purpose by the state to grow the economy at the expense of the people. They pretty much copy and pasted the same tactics Japan used both in Meiji period and in the postwar period (1948-1970s)

@@cydessaso that is true except that the US military dismantled the zaibatsu system when they made japan capitulate in 1945. Of course they were not 100% successful, but the zaibatsu system in Japan is much weaker than chaebols in Korea now and the corporate world is much more diverse with different companies.

Still prefer the blade runner tbh

Someone should tell this Korean that everyone knows you are Korean😂

@@bae2646 Why? Just curious. Your comment seems to have nothing to do with anything so I am wondering why you said it lol

I’m Korean but I know for a fact that Korea doesn’t have the saddest history on Earth.

Cause US and Japan😡😡

Agreed, I lived in Korea for a bit, and out of the Koreans I met there, more than half have moved to other Western countries e.g. US, Canada. Granted maybe that's a biased sample because the people I met knew enough English to be able to land somewhere else and survive, but still it's pretty wild that I can visit S. Korea and not see all my Korean friends on my trip.

@@monkeyhero479 I don't doubt that the majority of people who have the time and money and opportunity would happily leave the country.

Theres a phrase I heard "Asia is heaven for spending money, hell for making money"

@@liben5052 as an American that moved to Asia for a decade, this statement is too true. Vacationing there you will live like a king. Actually living there and experiencing life as a local and making local money is a whoooole different breed lol Unless you're an expat or already have an existing business or already come from money, or retired living off fat retirement funds given you've been fiscally responsible your whole life. Then you'll be just fine

@@liben5052 Depends. Japan's GDP per capita isn't much lower than the US, but their cost of living is significantly lower

@@jo-shi8759 Concluding Asia into a same group is weird. Asian is really diversed. We don't even have same political ideology, culture and the economy is really different.

@@user-dh3bv1dl4t Yes I understand Asia is diverse, but things are usually similar since they are in the same region.. Just like US/UK/Canada/Australia/NZ etc have similar thinkings with minor differences
