South Korea's population of around 51 million people is made up of approximately 50.8% females, with a gender ratio slightly skewed towards males. While women's rights and opportunities have improved in recent years, challenges still exist, including gender inequality in the workplace, traditional gender roles, and violence against women. However, the government and civil society groups are working to address these issues and promote gender equality. South Korea has a well-developed healthcare system, with policies in place to promote women's health, and education opportunities for women have also improved significantly.
