MethodAPIPathSummary
POST/v1/korea-population/population-by-regionReturns resident-registration population rows (population, households, male/female split) for one Korean province for a given year and month, optionally narrowed to one district by its exact name. Use when the user asks for the population, household count, or male/female breakdown of a specific province or district in a specific month; this is the preferred operation. korea-population:resident-demographics is an equivalent alias with the same input and output, so do NOT switch to it expecting different results. Do NOT use for multi-month trends or projections — each call covers exactly one month. Do NOT use for months before October 2022, which is the first month this dataset publishes. A province-wide query reads every district of the province and every page of every district, so the rows are the complete province and never a first page; if a query is too large for the fixed upstream request budget it is refused outright rather than answered with part of the province. Returns items, one row per district — there is no province-total row, so sum the rows if you need one.
POST/v1/korea-population/resident-demographicsLists resident-registration demographic rows (population, households, male/female split) for one Korean province for a given year and month, optionally narrowed to one district by its exact name.

Use only when korea-population:population-by-region is unavailable; otherwise prefer that operation. Do NOT use for multi-month trends or projections — each call covers exactly one month.
