Quick Glance: Protests in South Korea: Doctors Resign in Solidarity
- Senior doctors at numerous hospitals in South Korea planned to submit their resignations as a show of support for medical interns and residents who have been on strike for five weeks due to the government's drastic increase in medical school admissions.
- The decision by senior doctors is unlikely to immediately worsen hospital operations in South Korea, given their commitment to continue working even after submitting their resignations.
- Approximately 12,000 interns and medical residents are facing potential license suspensions for persisting with their strikes, resulting in numerous canceled surgeries and treatments at their hospitals.
- The government emphasizes the urgent need for more doctors due to South Korea's rapidly aging population and the low doctor-to-population ratio, while doctors express concerns that the planned increase in admissions may lead to excessive competition and unnecessary treatments.
