Recently, more and more people in Korea keep eggs frozen to give birth to children later on.

Developed countries that have recently dramatically increased fertility rates have focused on improving the environment in which children are born and raised.



In Sweden, maternity leave for men has become a culture as the origin of'Latte Papa', which refers to a father with a stroller in one hand and coffee in the other.



So did the Swedish Ambassador to Korea, Jakob Hallgren, who has three children.



[Jakob Hallgren/Swedish Ambassador to Korea: (after giving birth) my wife took a vacation for nearly a year, and I also took a vacation for 7 months.

In Sweden (per child) you can go on parental leave with 85% of your usual salary for up to 16 months.]



France, once synonymous with low birth rates, now has the highest fertility rate in the EU.



I benefited from applying the same to couples living together and single mothers.
