Current Status of Publications for Seniors in Korea

Topic   Current Status of Publications for Seniors in Korea   2021.12.06   Heightened interest in “publications for older readers” ahead of the post-aged society   The United Nations (UN) defines a society where people aged 65 and above account for more than 20% of the population as a "post-aged society." Based on this standard, Korea will be entering the post-aged society in 2025, four years from now, with the aged population accounting for 20.3% of the entire population. As of 2020, the proportion of citizens aged 65 and above was 15.7%. Still, agricultural regions with a higher percentage of the older population (Jeollanam-do, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Jeollabuk-do, and Gangwon-do) are already categorized as post-aged local societies. One of the reasons for Korea's rapid aging is the low birth rate, which is the lowest in the world.Compared to other major countries in the OECD, the relative poverty rate of Korea's aged population is high. According to the sta...
