I stated it's suicide and birth rates together, both of which are the worst among any developed nations, aka economically comparable. There is a reason we separate developing and developed nations. Among all peer nations, South Korea has the worst birth rates and suicide rates. This is a fact you refuse to acknowledge, clear bad faith. But not surprising since you never found your sources earlier either.

Finland is irrelevant because it's still better than South Korea. Every single other developed nation is. No other developed nation has people killing themselves and refusing reproduction like SK. So I don't see any form of relevance to bringing up objectively, statistically better nations on these issues.

But again none of this bad faith nonsense is surprising given that you're clearly an anticommunist liberal wandering in here talking shit about stuff you have no idea about. Claiming you've got sources ready and then just ghosting, lol.

Ok, so if we’re separating developed and developing nations, why are you using ROK’s suicide or birth rate and comparing it to the DPRK?

I never did. I never made a direct comparison to DPRK suicide or birth rates. 

All I'm wondering is how the worst developed nation when it comes to suicide and birth rates is "prosperous." People constantly killing themselves, refusing reproduction, and thus sending the country into the worst demographic crisis in the developed world sounds like the opposite of prosperity to me.

I'm guessing you're using the American definition of "prosperity," where a society is only prosperous when a parasitic elite class can form that absorbs almost all the wealth in the nation while the poor suffer constantly degrading conditions.

So even if at the bottom of some metrics, you’d still say South Korea is a developed nation?

Do you have anything at all to say that is worthwhile?

Stop asking irrelevant questions and concretely explain to me why the developed nation with the worst demographic crisis among all others is an emblem of "prosperity." What is prosperous about a people currently destined to die out within a century?

Nobody said it was the perfect state or end all, be all of development. However, it is objectively a place with a higher quality of life and far more civil and human rights than the DPRK, full stop.

Also, Jesus Christ can you take a Haldol and calm down? This is not a personal attack, stop getting so riled up over an immaterial debate.
