Yoon to address nation on medical reform Monday

President Yoon Suk Yeol plans to address the nation Monday on the government's push for medical reform, his office said Sunday, amid the protracted walkout by junior doctors in protest of the government's plan to boost the medical school enrollment quota. "As there are many opinions saying that the people want to know about the government's plan for medical reform and the medical school quota hike, Yoon plans to explain them in detail tomorrow," his office said in a text message to reporters. The move comes amid heightened concerns that the prolonged walkout could disrupt medical services as medical professors and community doctors are set to reduce their working hours starting this week.
