Kosis Stats

Pulls official Korean government statistics from KOSIS (the national statistics portal) via their Open API. You get search, metadata inspection, and data retrieval for population, household, employment, and price index tables. Most queries run through a hosted proxy so you don't need your own API key, but bulk downloads require registering a userStatsId on KOSIS first. The main gotcha is that many tables need explicit dimension filters beyond the default, and responses cap at 40,000 cells, so you'll be slicing large requests by period or region. Useful if you're building something that needs authoritative Korean demographic or economic data and you'd rather script it than click through their web portal.
