According to KOSIS (KOrean Statistical Information Service, KOSIS),
the fertility rate of South Korea in 2022 has reached about 0.78.
My question is, will this number ever reach 0.5 or below in 2024 statistics?
Since the 2022 statistics were released in the year 2023, I assume the fertility rate of 2024 will be visible in the year 2025.
This is the source of the statistics of the fertility rate:

In case the South Korean government does not release trustful statistics,
please let me know if there is another source that can be trustworthy in showing the South Korean fertility rate.
