In South Korea they no longer know what to do to ensure that the population has children
Of all South Korea’s problems, one is certainly shocking: they have the tariff birth lowest in the world0.72 children per woman. In recent years, governments and administrations have tried to reverse this trend, but no one has been able to stop the decline. Now they are trying one last measure to deal with the crisis: they are hiring foreign nannies.

As part of this strategy, the government announced the hiring of 100 Filipino nannies who will now be able to work in the country. The measure is just the beginning, as around 1,200 foreign nannies are expected to be hired by the first half of 2025.
An unsolved problem

The situation is such that Seoul has warned it the country could be the first in the world to disappear due to this demographic decline.
