What do you consider a better metric? The number of aborted female babies? China number 1 in having excess males vs females with over 50 million chinese males that are destined to never find a female partner
The yen is getting crushed during 2022 and expected to get a lot worse, its at 135.3 today
The IMF GDP per capita nominal for Japan estimate based on 2021 average exchange rate was $39,243, the 2021 average exchange rate was 109.8, also Japan GDP declined 0.2% in the first quarter of 2022 so the economy is shrinking, this is over a 25% decline in the value of anything Japanese yen related compared to 2021
Based on current exchange rate the GDP per capita for Japan for 2022 is now $30,099, basically the same as Estonia or the Czech Republic
Crazy to think that Japan's gdp per capita has been the same since the 1980s, at this rate they are going to struggle to claim first world status in a few years when countries like Hungary and Poland pass Japan on a nominal per capita basis
Ok fine let's say you are right but what about korea? 1,308.38 South Korean won right now the same goes with Korea right? when has Korea's GDP got over 53,000 USD?
The yen will strengthen once the global recessions kick in

The US dollar is mogging every currency in the world but the Korean won has only declined 14.3% which is better than most other currencies, slightly better than the Euro which declined 15.8% but both much better than the Yen which declined ~25%
SK GDP grew 3% through the first half of 2022 so even with a strong US dollar, the SK nominal per capita is $30,883 based on today's exchange rate
The GDP per capita figures in the OP post is the IMF estimate based on PPP
Nominal is stupid though, Mississippi has a nominal gdp per capita of almost $50,000 and its effectively a third world country by US standards, and even the most redneck anti-Japanese is going to try to rationalize its almost 2x more developed than Japan
Currency futures and analyst actually are forecasting the opposite, it has to do with a sluggish fiscal policy management system combined with a 40%+ of the population over the age of 60
Sadly the only way to fix the yen's continued decline is to increase immigration to where its 30%+ of the Japanese population, the Japanese would rather be Philippines tier than a multicultural society
