According to a survey conducted in South Korea in 2021, around 5.4 percent of women in their seventies reported that they had struggled with a depressive disorder over the past year. This was in stark contrast to men in the same age group, of whom only 0.3 percent reported the same. Women across almost all age groups reported a higher one-year prevalence rate.
