From a global perspective, many countries are facing similar challenges of demographic changes. In the process of economic development and social change, population aging and low birth rates have become common phenomena. For example, in developed countries such as Japan and Germany, the proportion of elderly people continues to rise, the labor market faces shortages, and the social security system is under tremendous pressure.

These changes have brought about a series of social problems. The burden of elderly care has increased, medical resources have been strained, employment opportunities for young people have been affected, and the allocation of educational resources needs to be readjusted. At the same time, the structure of the consumer market has changed, and the demand for industries such as elderly care and medical care has increased, while industries related to children may face shrinkage.

However, this also brings new opportunities for economic and social development. The increase in elderly care and welfare facilities has promoted the development of related industries and created more jobs. Technology plays an important role in meeting these challenges, such as the research and development and application of telemedicine and smart elderly care equipment.

In terms of culture, different countries have different ways of coping. Some countries pay more attention to family care and emphasize family care, while other countries rely on a sound social welfare system to ensure the quality of life of the elderly. This cultural difference is also reflected in the concept of children's education and training.

Enterprises need to adjust their strategies according to the changes in population structure, pay attention to the needs of the elderly market, and develop products and services suitable for the elderly; at the same time, they should also pay attention to the consumption concepts and changes in needs of young people to adapt to the dynamic development of the market.

In short, this phenomenon in South Korea is a microcosm of the changes in the global population structure. Countries need to learn from the experiences of other countries, combine their own national conditions, and formulate effective policies and development strategies to achieve sustainable development.
