Hello, I'm Jung Shin, the chairman of the Gwangju Medical Tourism Council.

Senior medical professionals in Gwangju, who recognized the need for "medical tourism" earlier, would like to help themselves by engraving the purpose of launching the Gwangju Medical Tourism Council once again.

As you know, the medical tourism market is fiercely competing with global cities beyond Korea, so I know that it is never easy to attract foreign patients to Gwangju.

However, we will do our best to increase the attractiveness of Gwangju's unique medical tourism by combining medical services including world-class medical technology and medical infrastructure, including policy support from Gwangju Metropolitan City.

We will strengthen the establishment and networking of industry, academia, research, and government cooperation systems for the development of local medical tourism, and strive to create infrastructure for the development of the medical industry, promote, and train professional personnel.

As there are various problems that arise while conducting medical tourism projects, a differentiated strategy is needed to overcome regional limitations. Taking advantage of Gwangju's high-quality cultural attractions, we will try to develop it into a medical tourism industry unique to Gwangju.

Thank you.
