A man waits for a subway train in Seoul October 22, 2008, at a station with automated doors on the platform. As South Korea's economic numbers take a turn for the worse, public health experts are worried about a wave of financially strapped people taking their lives in the country with the highest suicide rate in the developed world. South Korea's suicide rate nearly doubled during the Asian financial crisis a decade ago from previous years with experts saying a leading factor was strain caused by job and income loss.
