Korean society is supremely eugenic

Also the children have wonderful childhoods until they turn 7 and the study begins

But the harsh reality of hagwons and military service weeds out the weak

While women with personality disorders remove themselves from the gene pool by refusing to breed

Only the strongest, healthiest men, and the most psychologically stable women actually have children

The future looks bright for the blood

How you would judge that is "of those who do breed, how many kids do they have?" Do they have most people forming a family with only one child, continuing a slow societal decline? Or is there a vast majority of dysgenic people having zero children, with the occasional eugenic couple having 6 to 16 children?

majority will have 0-1 children

sizable minority (of healthy, prosocial, wealthy) have 1-3 (the number correlates strongly with socioeconomic status and earning potential of the father)

a small minority of (usually older) men in the countryside import SEA wives and also have 1-2

then the immigration system is itself eugenic (no welfare tourism, hard to get residence, Korean language requirement functions as a +110-120 IQ test)

so there will be a genetic bottleneck in the Korean population, followed by long-term decline, buttressed by generally eugenic immigration, and a more racially-stratified society (pure Koreans and half-whites at the top and upper urban middle, half-SEA at the rural lower middle, Chinese Koreans at the bottom, plus guest workers filling roles automation cannot replace)

overall a positive benefit owing to the increased cognitive diversity that comes from hybridisation and multilingualism

unless, of course, they fuck it up by relaxing the language requirement for residence and import a horde of muslims (still possible)
