In 2023, approximately 2.64 million people in South Korea were registered as disabled. This represents a slight decrease from the previous year, which had seen the highest figure recorded since 1989. The amount of people registered as disabled increased drastically from 1989 to 2010, and though it has still continued to increase since then, it has been at a much slower pace.
