South Korea has seen a notable fertility rate recovery, driven by a post-World War II baby boom echo and robust government policies, including extended parental leave and substantial cash subsidies. In contrast, China faces declining birth and marriage rates, with minimal fertility incentives, particularly in cities like Shanghai. East Asian nations, shaped by Confucian values, have prioritized economic growth, often at the expense of traditional family-oriented cultures. China’s low fiscal resources and heavy deficits limit its ability to emulate South Korea’s aggressive subsidies. Meanwhile, an oversupply of college graduates fuels unemployment, weakening workers’ bargaining power and discouraging childbirth. This creates a cycle where economic pressures and job insecurity suppress fertility, reducing consumer spending and business profits. While South Korea’s incentives show results, China’s focus on short-term economic gains and employment stability hinders long-term population investment, posing challenges to societal continuity.
