Suicide No. 1 cause of death for younger people in South Korea



Not really surprising by itself. Among young adults suicide is:
  • #1 cause of death in North Korea,
  • #1 cause of death in Japan,
  • #2 cause of death in China, after traffic deaths,
  • #2 cause of death in Singapore, after traffic deaths,
  • #2 cause of death in Australia, after traffic deaths,
  • #3 cause of death in Vietnam, after traffic deaths and HIV,
It's also #1 in Norway or in Chile, while #6 in Djibouti and #11 in DRC.
You want to live in countries where suicide is No. 1 cause of death for younger people.
Edit: It's from Global Burden of Disease Study 2010. Suicide among young adults is:
  • #2 cause of death in Canada, after traffic deaths,
  • #3 cause of death in USA, after traffic deaths and homicide.
