I mean, South Korea and Japan's birth rate is a serious problem.

The issue is less that they're going 'extinct', and more that the population pyramid is gonna look real fucky going forward, and that comes with... economic issues. And potentially cultural issues.

Those look very similar to me. I would say Japan is now where Poland will be in 10 years. Why it's a problem for Japan but not Poland?
