"Surplus" tickles me for some reason. "I was really sorry to hear that Min-jun passed away, but to be fair, he was surplus to requirement."
He was unfortunately redundant.
So you're saying if I want to hook up in SK I should go for old ladies?
Depends. If they wanna hookup then you could be the shit.
'surplus' is a very Ebenezer Scrooge way of referencing a person
The biggest range of 'surplus' for men coincides with the highest gap in education and employment.

It seems like to me that women are getting educations but don't find work in South Korea. But they are able to leave the country to find work when they aren't hired domestically.
So I wonder if these numbers include Koreans living abroad.
Proof Asian grannies are infinite and ageless.
Am I reading this right? Looks like SK is in for a whole lot of pain in the next 10-20 years with a population that is massively weighted towards older people, who are more likely to need care and services, and far fewer young people to be earning the money and paying the tax to fund it. Gulp.
Yes, they are in serious trouble.
And while the rest of the developed world seems to be following in a similar direction, they've been leading the way for years.
Let's hope they have lots of GILF-hunters
Now that is a chart that should cause fear in people living in SK.
