South Korea has recorded a slight bump in the number of babies being born, after years of decline.
The country has the lowest fertility rate in the world, but figures just released show there were 238,000 births last year – that’s an increase of 3.6 percent.
Al Jazeera’s Rob McBride reports from Seoul, South Korea.
