South Korea Faces Healthcare Crisis Amid Doctor Strike

Trainee doctors continue their strike over medical school admissions, leading to significant disruptions in healthcare services.

Police in South Korea raided offices of the Korean Medical Association amid a nationwide strike by trainee doctors, affecting healthcare services.
About 10,000 trainee doctors have resigned since mid-February, protesting against the government's plan to increase medical school admissions.
The government has warned striking doctors of prosecution and suspension of their medical licenses if they do not return to work.
The strike has led to canceled surgeries and patients being turned away from hospitals due to a lack of doctors.
Public support for the government's plan to increase medical school admissions is high, with President Yoon's approval rating rising.
