Research documents that South Korea as a nation has the lowest fertility rate in the world. Apartment Women by Gu Byeong-mo (translated by Chi-Young Kim) builds a story around a fictional government program to address the issues of a declining and aging population. The book is an interesting look at the South Korean culture through this lens. Many of the concerns of daily and the women's search for a work-life balance are universal and relatable.
