I'm puzzled about the high debt levels in South Korea. Could you please explain what factors have led to this situation? Is it primarily due to government borrowing, corporate debt, or household loans? And how does this high debt affect the South Korean economy and its citizens' daily lives? I'm also curious about the government's strategies to address this issue and whether they're effective. Could you provide some insights into this?
