В Северной Корее текущий уровень распространённости курения табака остаётся серьёзной проблемой общественного здравоохранения. По данным на 2024 год, примерно 3,4 миллиона человек в возрасте 15 лет и старше курят, что отражает небольшое снижение по сравнению с 2020 годом, когда курили 3 573 389 человек. Общая распространённость курения табака среди взрослых в 2024 году составила 16,1%, что показывает незначительное снижение по сравнению с 17,6% в 2020 году. В 2024 году распространённость курения среди взрослого мужского населения была зафиксирована на уровне 32,9%, тогда как в 2020 году этот показатель составлял 36,4%. Для справки, ежедневное курение среди взрослых в 2017 году составляло 18,3% (среди мужчин — 38,4%), при этом данных по женщинам не приводится. В 2021 году примерно 42 321 смерть была обусловлена курением, что составляет 17,48% всех случаев смерти в стране. Детализированные по полу данные за 2021 год показывают, что среди мужчин курение табака стало причиной 27,4% всех смертей, тогда как среди женщин этот показатель составил 8,13%. Эти статистические данные подчёркивают сохраняющиеся трудности в контроле табака в Северной Корее и указывают на необходимость целевых мер и политики, направленных на снижение распространённости табака и связанных с ним негативных последствий для здоровья.
