Every typical Asian household be like if you don't do laundry,dishes, cleaning or other household chores you are not capable of eating 3 meals. So yeah a kinda child labour for which I don't get paid.

The difference exists only in very careful, slow speech. In more natural, daily speeking, when ㄹ meets ㅎ, ㅎ becomes silent. Therefore, most of the time there is no difference between 일해 and 이래. Similarily, 말하다 (to speak) usually sounds like [마라다] and 끓이다 (to boil) like [끄리다] and so on.

OMG I am native Korean. But I choose wrong word. I hear this pronounce like 이래요. (even slow speech also)
Yepp, gets me every time, too. Should there be a difference in pronunciation between 일해요 and 이래요?
I think even in english many words sound the same, it's really just all about context i guess.
I'm pretty sure child labour has been outlawed in South Korea. The North is another story...

Child Labour is legally prohibited in North Korea. In reality it sometimes is not abided, though. Yet still, children's rights are respected to a quite surprising level, if we take into account the overall terrible human rights situation. According to majority of evidence North Korea does not abuse child labour to the extent China and some other countries do.
Here is a quite interesting and recent article about freedoms of children in North Korea.
For a second I thought of the child working correctly like a machine... Is there a difference with those words or do you just need the context like in English?
I don't know myself, but that is a good point. Work in English can mean physical labor or it can refer to something functioning/operating correctly. I'd like to know if 일하다 changes meaning as well.
in the entertainment industry. perfectly legal though exploitation could still happen.
Duolingo you are getting darker and darker day by day ....... Now you are talking about child labour... ( * _ * )

What the heck! Now this garam nim person make that child to work Police should arrest him
Is this 'the child works' as in the child works a part time job or 'the child works' as in when you're a few orphans short in your basement and see a child and think "hmmm, this child will work"
