It's pretty dire. There won't be a Korea after a couple more generations, at this rate. I'm not surprised they're making a big effort.
Indeed.
And N. Korea is increasing its population because they know they'll have excess of land in forty fifty years.

Comparatively, N. Korea has grown much more slowly, since the division. I doubt they last long enough to take advantage of the fertility trends.

Yes, but it hasn't declined and it's a positive. Plus, there's nothing for how many children can a couple have. I've studied a bit about demographics of N.K. and they aren't showing a negative picture. https://www.macrotrends.net/global-metrics/countries/PRK/north-korea/population-growth-rate
