(4)Until the 1980s and 1990s, Korea’s suicide rate was among the lowest among OECD countries, but the domestic suicide rate has increased sharply since 2000 and has remained the No. 1 OECD country for the past 17 years In particular, the domestic suicide rate increased by more than 100 in about 10 years from 2001 to 2011 According to the National Statistical Office, the nation’s suicide rate increased from 144 per 100,000 people in 2001 to 317 in 2011 The actual number of suicides increased from 6,911 to 15,906 during the same period
(5)Korea’s suicide rate is still very high compared to other countries. According to OECD data in 2020, Korea’s suicide rate is 246 per 100,000 people, more than double the OECD average of 113.

(6)A more serious problem is the suicide of our growing children Suicide is the number one cause of death among teenagers aged 10 to 19 There are three times as many teenagers who commit suicide as there are deaths from traffic accidents Suicide is also the No. 1 cause of death in their 20s and 30s. The No. 1 cause of death in their 40s and 50s is an abnormal organization that grows faster than normal, such as malignant neoplastic cancer, and the No. 2 is suicide

– The suicide rate in most countries fell and some countries saw their suicide rates rise, but none of them rose 100 in 10 years like ours, the OECD found out why Korea’s suicide rate soared and reached two conclusions The treatment rate for depression is significantly lower than that of other countries, and there are few psychological treatments

Korea’s economic power is said to be among the top 10 in the world, but its performance in treating depression is as good as failing Rwanda, which ranks 145th in economic power, also has better results in treating depression than us,” he pointed out
