If you live outside of Seoul, it's difficult to see a doctor | Undercover Korea

- In South Korea, 50% of the population lives in Seoul. The same goes for the physician population, so doctors who still stay in the provinces have a special sense of mission. When rural healthcare breaks down, the health of the people who live in rural areas breaks down. They have less access to care just because they live outside of Seoul.

These doctors are the courageous few who are holding the line. It made me see that they could go anywhere for acknowledgement, or prestige, but they are choosing something which is more rewarding and is also making a difference. They should know that this documentary shows them for the heroes that they are.
Yes! They are the true heroes!
make becoming a doctor exempt from military service (if it's not, already)
@@noob.168 just so u know they need doctors for military too
@@kolt2596 and im talking about conscription...
I'll be honest… I realized something is completely wrong with me the moment I realize I can tell that lady his father had died and I put on some words and a fake smile that I learn how to do when I was tired and started to doing it more and more often… lately that's all I can remember how to do. But it practically remove any emotional issue I would otherwise face if I care about each and every single one like a normal person would.
You still have to clock in the next day, and regardless if it's holiday you will see a patient being wheeled in sometimes with their love ones full of worry by their side... It would be hell if you still have the time to care about how these things. If you're there distracted thinking about this stuff… will the patient do your job to save themselves?
Thanks to this I don't need to take sleeping pills to sleep at night, and still able to have a good night sleep even if I just lost a patient earlier in the day. Not that I don't feel bad, it's just that no one wants a sleep-deprived doctor to be the one responsible their love ones now wouldn't they?
This is the real Doldam Hospital
im teaching English in korea. excellent health care.
literally reminds me of doctor romantic and that dilapidated little hospital by the countryside in 1st season.
Hospitals are supposed to be a place for healing!
I live outside of Seoul. It's not hard to find a doctor
They talking about the hospitals not enough surgeons
@@OMGDiLeKsurgeons mainly due to lower wage. In the US surgeons are best paid. In korea, surgeons are the lowest paid with most working hours. Who wants to do that.
@@tisser-k9d I think you are Korean, but you are mistaken.
In Korea, cardiothoracic surgeons are paid high.
However, the hospital profit is lower than that of other departments because the medical fee is low.
That's why large hospitals are gradually reducing thoracic surgery.
I admire the Drs who stay to serve the underprivileged people of those province's. They truly choose to serve humanity over high profile positions at larger hospitals in bigger cities. They are the real heroes. Sadly the decline in Health Systems is happening worldwide. So many smaller hospitals in my area of the US have closed, and the only remaining one is overcrowded, overburdened, and understaffed with a huge elderly population in our rural areas that seems to be very neglected and underserved. Great job with the documentary - I hope it inspires new Doctors graduating medical school in South Korea to choose to be on the front lines to serve their local communities. This hospital offers a wealth of hands on experience for any intern, especially those who like a fast paced environment.
Hate to say it, but the reality theres like maybe 1 in 10 million medical doctors who do that, mostly are just have no choice and as you can see most of doctors seen here are young meaning theyre just there for experience and likely rejected at other hospital and once they have enough experience they very much look for another hospital who pays better. trust me people sure like helping people to save life , but most if us prefer it it it pays well too.
I didn‘t see the whole documentary yet and am not in Korea. Still, i wonder why do you think that in local hospitals you will get more experience and expertise? In bigger hospitals i think you may not be allowed to practice as much actively, but you have a chance to get more input from others and not do the mistakes yourself? Am I wrong here? I mean if you have a larger pool of more experienced doctors present in a larger hospital you obviously also have more experienced people there
I am a nurse for over 30 years working in California USA. I have met so many dedicated hard work young men and women studying extremely hard and becoming doctors, nurses and other ancillary health professionals. The hospital managers and CEOs do not care about the patients or their staffs. Many are so overworked and overwhelmed with heavy workload and especially during the COVID pandemic. How do these people the hospitals management and CEOs repay us with pay cut and take away. Blaming us for hospitals error due mostly to system errors. The hospitals management know that it’s cheaper to blame the doctors or nurses than to fix the on going system errors. Hope these managers and CEOs reap their vile karmas one day. I am getting out and don’t advise the young to go into it either.
Sadly a lot more doctors and nurses are still pushing to go to the US, despite knowiing these problems. Their only reason is that salaries are much higher.
I feel like watching real life dr. Romantic and hospital playlist at the same time😭😔. May God bless you all Heroes in White!!!
because that series were made as a critics to their healthcare system. but it didnt go as pretty as the series.
It is exactly the same ❤

지금까지 대한민국은 가장 우수한 국민보건의료 시스템을 유지했지만, 정작 혜택받는 국민들은 그럴 만한 자격이 없는 것 같습니다…. 혜택이 계속 되면, 권리인 줄 착각하지요…ㅠㅠ 이제 곧 종료합니다… 생애 처음 보는 의료 지옥이 펼쳐집니다…ㅠㅠ
I'm an Emergency doctor who has worked 10 year in emergency department in Malaysia and it's basically war on daily basis here. We struggle to keep the patient alive in the district hospital before transferrng them to bigger hospital for definitive treatment like surgery. It's basically the same all over the world
Which district hospital, malaysia dah banyak keluar kkm
Excellent documentary. Thank you to all the hard-working doctors on the front lines.❤️❤️❤️
Hi. I'm a nurse, i'm 22 years old, i'm from Mexico and i don't have job. I'm Reading the comments. And this situation is not only in Korea, it is all over the world. The health system was already deficient but after the pandemic this increased. All staff do their best to care for patients. There is not enough staff and supplies as well as medicines and despite all this; we always give 100% of ourselves for our patients recover and return home.
i am a student nurse as of the moment and this video makes me want to even study harder to help save lives esp in rural areas. i am from the ph and ph nurses has been known as one of the exporters of nurses worldwide. i was once asked by a clinical instructor during college admission interview whether i will also want to go abroad to earn more money since nurse's salary here is ph is so smaall and i said no i wanted to work at a local provincial hospital. they all laughed because they said students nowadays only want to study nursing bc of money. well not for me. this vid made me even want to work at a local or provincial hospital to help the locals who are in need. if i will be given an opportunity to study medicine, i will think twice to continue learning. i really hope people who wanted to become a healthcare professional are dedicated to their jobs as well to the health of their countrymen.
But it doesn’t pays well so :’((
Thank you for your courage. You are a hero.
It happened everywhere in this worlds..even it developed country...but the worse is for the doctor in warzone country..with the bombed anytime and wild bullet they can die anytime and poor insfrustruture within the hospital ang living area but there are still to do the best for theirs patient..Good luck everyone wherever you are
I felt sad watching this. I have a lot of respect for these doctors. I hope they know what they're doing is beyond amazing work.
Peace be with you 💚

I think this is a problem in every country. At my city the most people need to go to the metropoly to have a best treatment. Thank you for the documentary!
From my perspective as a British guy living in Anyang, South Korea the part about the decline in the number of new pediatricians hit home- I sometimes wait for several hours at our local clinic just for the kids to be seen for something minor and the waits are getting longer. On another note, many of my students (I'm an English teacher) are nurses studying for the IELTS test so that they can eventually emigrate to America where the salaries for healthcare workers are much higher.
Same as my fellow Filipinos 😢coz of love salary 😢
@@tiredofeverything1 My suspicion is that a large number of Koreans would be highly distrustful of a foreign doctor.
@@tiredofeverything1xenophobia makes it pretty hard, especially since foreigners who do so are mistreated and discriminated against/ refused by employers unless they’re already pretty accomplished 😢
With the lowest birth rate in probably the whole of human history, and one of the fastest-ageing societies in history, there's only one direction it's going to go for years to come, and that's down, down, down.
Tragic, but it's already started, and it will accelerate every single year from here on out.
@@GK-yi4xv it is also a problem in North America and Western Europe. The only reason why they are not facing a demographic crisis now is because of immigrants.
I have worked for 5 years of my residency in an understaffed field in my country as not many choose Oncology as they find treating cancer patients despressing, so we always had 3-4 residents at a time and during my final year of residency we were only two residenrs at my universitys hospital which happens to be ASIAs one of the largest hospital by no of beds. So it felt like 5 years of my residency were running in front of my eyes in form of this documentary! These doctors must be really overworked and are the precious and courageous ones! I used to hear and still hear by other specialty doctors that i have really strong nerves to choose a specialty where not many have courage to train! I completely understand and salute these doctors they are heros!
You guys are amazing. Spending so many years for training and even after working, still works around the clock when others are sleeping.
Being a German Doctor I would move to such an area in Korea in a heartbeat after gaining sufficient proficiency in the language... Unfortunately our degrees are not recognized in Korea so we'd have to take very extensive examinations again to be licensed to work as a doctor there.
There was a bud in my unit who achieved doctor's license in china which is not lecognized in south korea. That was why he joined the korean military police as a private instead of being an medical officer. I wonder how is he doing in these days.
Some elderly people who live alone often avoid asking their children for help, even when they get sick. just because they don't want to worry or burden their children. Parents are truly special, a gift from God.
Mostly Koreans to become a K-Pop Artists but they don't see the lower percentage of health care workers working in clinic and hospitals. They are high tech of equipments but little employed of workers.
Korea's dependency on Seoul and concentration on Seoul are shocking. Why can't they spread development more evenly throughout the country instead of focusing everything around Seoul?
Their over-reliancene on Seoul started to show; less job opportunities at rural areas, less facilities for rural folks, even less medical healthcare for them. Shocking.
They seem to have adopted a lot of things from the French. Semi-presidential system, hypercentralization, too much money and resources centered on the capital, gradual extinction of local dialects and languages.
When they try to spread things out, they give up because no one wants to leave Seoul.
Otoh, apparently more people are now leaving Seoul than moving there, because it's just too expensive.
Iam filling it, when iam losing my mother, its like there is a very deep wound on my heart up until now. And as for the medical forces, keep up the fight, even if some cannot be saved, but there is others that surely can be saved.
What shocked me is south korea relatively a small country by area. How come a rich small country can have this problem. Big country like usa with many rural area in the middle i can understand. Developing countries, it is everyday story. But rich country with korea area size?
Those young doctors are so committed to their vocation their only thought is for their patients. It so sad that many elderly patients live far from their children and nearest relatives, and what so often is the case hesitate to call them. This is something we very rarely see the struggles and aspirations of these young aspiring doctors committed to their patients and saving lives. God bless these wonderful men and women. Thank you for sharing. From New Zealand.
Great documentary, similar situation in other industrialised countries where medical is mostly available in the big cities. Residency years should be done where needed….
Sorry, ….. medical care…
This is very very sad
This is a liar!
As a medical student watching this I feel I still have lots of things to learn
The same feeling i feel as an intorn nurse student
😭😭😭 Idk why everywhere is staff shortage when we rly need more doctors and nurses specialized in every fields. :(
Healthcare systems are underpaying and taking advantage of the staffs. So no surprise people are leaving as they have bills to pay too
Korea's becoming like the USA. Please don't do this!
As a person who previously worked as a nurse, we were so abused by the hospitals. That’s the worst part.
Peace be with you 💚

Same case with my country.. that’s why we need to take care of our selves.
this is similar to the public health care situation in the Philippines except we don't have the necessary
equipment. intubate a patient but no mechanical ventilator. No anti-seizure medications at the emergency room. And only 1 nurse assigned to an entire ward. 😞
I agree. This is common in rural areas. In Manila, there are a lot of well-equipped hospitals, but still, understaffing is common probably due to the low salary wage.
same here too, in the er i work the suction machine doesnt work, so its a gamble with every intubation and we also dont have a ventilator so we just continue to use the ambu till the patient reaches another center
As a co-assistant (soon-to-be a general practitioner) in a national hospital (literally one of the last referral hospitals in my country) I can relate to this experience in a personal way 😢
Turns out in a different part of the world (Seoul), the same thing happened..
Hey, do you mind me asking you something? I am about to graduate high school in Germany and have to very soon lay out my plans for my future career. Im very unsure though. Having watched this documentary Im interested in maybe going down the medical path - to feel this sense of fulfillment and responsibility. Could you maybe tell me something about your experience in choosing to study medicine?
@@thanushathavaratnam6834 Sure, I hope this can be somewhat of a help
in my country, in order to be a GP we have to go through 3.5-4 years of preclinical phase in uni (getting a degree / bachelor of medicine) + 2 years of clinical rotations in an educational hospital.
My uni happened to collaborate with one of the largest referrals in the country, so the cases were very complex, unlike the typical things we studied during our bachelor years, focusing on one disease each. I came to realize that a complex case for us to learn is also a worse prognosis / outcome for the patient, so more proportion of patients are in worse condition that in those of a primary care setting.
There are some moments I cannot forget during my currently 1 year of clinical rotation, and it is indeed disheartening to see that these people are in this condition. I don’t really watch kdrama abt medical stuffs so I can’t really compare, but it is indeed an experience. It might be different from other major, as you are facing real problems in an actual human body, families facing the reality of truth, and the list goes on.
As someone who did not want to go to medical school, nevertheless, medicine is a worth-it major as it is a profession that people will always need, and being able to help not only patients but also my family felt very satisfying. It is also very multidisciplinary (and useful in real life), so even though you are not very passionate about one thing, I believe you will eventually find something you like in medicine. It’s not just about curing, but there’s also preventive, forensic medicine, to research. “You can be whatever you want?” I guess.
I wish for you to decide what’s the best for yourself! If you want to get medicine, despite the hectic clinical & residency life (yes), I think it is still worth to experience.
I hope there's a lot of content like this..❤❤❤
Watching this video makes me look in a view of society nowadays. I’m so thankful for all the doctors we have in our world.
I am working in the lab for a hospital. To be honest most professions in medical and clinical line are declining.
I am working in the lab plus blood bank and we are dealing with a lot of samples; routinely and urgently. It just draining mentally and physically especially when there’s a lot to do but so little time given. Plus, we need to give out results accurately and quickly as the doctors’ judgements will depend on us.
Adding also is at least the doctors and nurses’ struggles are known and people sympathise with them. They also will get a pay raise significantly after an amount of time. In my field, unless you move into managerial or executive position, you may have a raise around $100 plus minus yearly.
So true! It is not one person thing, is a working team! God bless you for helping so much
I sympathize with your struggles. 😢
You guys in the lab do such an important job. As a nurse, I thank you for all that you do!!
And 6 months on .... Even Seoul is ..... Having issues.
Great video. Best of luck to these young resident doctors.
It's happening in all countries UK 🇬🇧 Europe Canada 🇨🇦 etc more patients and less Doctors and Nurses ..low pay to much to much Stress
Pay these nurses & junior doctors well and let them flourish. Esp the ones outside seoul
That scene at 7:33 is exactly the same as my fathers 2 months ago. My sister called that my father is getting revive few hours after his surgical operation. I rushed to hospital and see the exact same thing, that tube with air that they are pumping in his lungs surrounded by doctors and nurses and younger medical staff as they take turns doing CPR. Before you knew it, tears were falling from your eyes and all you can do is watch from the door. Then they proceed in declaring time of death and covered him with a white cloth. You could just feel the pain of the 3 sons at 17:16 as they sat together and wait the inevitable. Hats off to all doctors and nurses who are doing their best to save our love ones.
Now the trainee doctors are striking. The root cause is more pay since they are already overworked previously and now afraid to see their income also dropping. However the citizens are unable to cough up the money. So the root cause is actually the highly flawed US monetary trading system. Perhaps East Asia should have their own single currency to prevent becoming slave to the "democracy" system.
OMG GOD BLESS these Doctors, nurses, hospital workers! Who'd want to work at an understaffed hospital like this? I feel so bad for them but then who would help the people in the country? So sad all the patients having to travel so far just to get treatment. Also the poor grandpa who has NO ONE to watch over him, comfort him. I hope there are social workers/volunteers in Korea to visit the sick who have no one.
Korea already has a well-equipped social worker/volunteer system that takes care of the elderly.
I think this decrease number of doctor are happening all over the world, after covid hit hard, lots of doctors and nurses were died in the field and how hard the jobdesk in the medical field makes people, especially younger generation think twice to work as a doctor or a nurse to continue maintain health care system. I’m afraid there would be a day when there’s no doctor or nurse around to help the patient
Don't know why people are complaining. Most people needs to go in massive debt to even becomes a doctor. Healthcare and hospital is underfund. I say countries reap what the sow.
Our doctors and nurses first responders. God blessed you! Thank you! Please respect how hard they worked to save lives 🙏🏾🙏🌎
Shows how spoiled the doctors are who are protesting against increasing the medical student intake to 5,000.
Much respect to all the doctors.. angels in human form... 👨⚕️👩⚕️🧑⚕️❤️❤️❤️
I am shocked to hear this. I thought the medical system in Korea was good everywhere. But it seems the medical system in most developed countries are getting worse, lack staff and are overworked.
Tbh it's way better than other developed countries.
It is better. But better can still be pretty shitty.
Like, imagine the best doctor in the whole planet for the whole 16th century. The best but still pretty bad
Here in the Philippines we are a lot of doctors and nurses they go abroad and work for big income to help their family back home
As a cardiovascular surgery resident myself I agree that it might be chaotic sometimes, but the satisfaction that comes after participating in a heart transplant and seeing the new, once stoped heart, start to beat again is unmatched! I couldn't do anything else.
This is not a weird thing in South Korea. Because most well-equipped hospitals and related professional medical workers have activated their services in Seoul. The reason is very simple. Most medical doctors in South Korea wanted to get their jobs in Metropolitan Seoul. Seoul's working conditions are much better than in local cities, to be honest. If the central government of South Korea had planned a plausible alternative to solve this serious thing, many urgent patients could've seen doctors' faces in their hometowns.
@@tiredofeverything1because they don’t like foreigners
@@tiredofeverything1korean doctors do not wish to share their income with others
@@tiredofeverything1 South Korea is know for its blatant racisim and xenophobia. Plenty documentaries show how they treat people who are a different skin colour to them. I still cant fathom why foreighers blindly follow stupid KPop especially countries like India when they ban Indians & Blacks from eating in resturants and bars. There several places in India with SK resturants that have banned Indians from patronising them.
돈은 적게 주는데 근무강도는 세계 최고 수준이니까..?
There shoul be incentives from the goverment for doctors who serve smaller cities to encourage more medical staff to practice in those areas
I thank all people who work in healthcare. You are a special person - humanity appreciates you selfless dedication to improve lives, to work under extreme conditions.
are... are family members beside the patient being resuscitated???
Such a great documentary, wow bless you all the heroes in white !!!!!!!🤍🫰🏻화이팅
I hope that will get more doctors and that the rookies will work hard. It's such a hard job and more people should thank them instead of forgetting that they save lives 😍😍😍😉
I hope these individuals keep strength and hope at their side every day. Their dedication to the people of their community speaks volumes of their character ❤

The reality in Corea,no everything in this life is beauty,there is a lot of heroes in the shadow,God bless and help them,my deeplest respect to the brave ones🙏👏❤️💯
what makes you think everything in korea is exactly like the drama shown?
That's saying US is just like the hollywood and India is just like the bollywood.
No doctor outside of big cities
Currently an intern doctor in a big city. Sometimes I’d go whole day of not being able to eat or pee. Sometimes I find myself coming home with just blank stares. I lost my personality out of so much exhaustion. And we’re not even paid to do this. Just part of the training. I want to give up everyday.
Yu Seung ho voice so lovely
I see my city use helicopter ambulances (Life Flight) often and have always taken it for granted. This video made me realize how important it is for those living far from trauma care hospitals.
I'm from Ulsan, Korea, but I was able to have my lap cholecystectomy within 3 days.
Documentary that everyone should watch❤
Μπράβο σάς πού η ορκωμοσία είναι του Ιπποκράτη! Σήμερα δεν ορκιζωνται έτσι. Είστε πραγματικά ιατροί.
Staffing shortages within healthcare seems to be a global issue. Where I’m from, millions of people don’t have access to a family doctor. Emergency Room wait times are at an all time high. In certain regions, patients wait an average of 20 hours to be admitted. This is due to the hospitals being understaffed and not having enough bedside nurses.
yoo seung ho is the narrator?? so random lol
I feel like watching Hospital playlist and Doctor romantic or first responder series.
We see doctors are earning lots of money but we can't imagine the pain , struggle they went through while performing there duties or even while studying. It's not easy job. Some of my friends are doctor. We rarely meets because of there schedule or even if we meet they have to be alert for any emergency. They can't date or even if they do because of there tight schedule they can't give that much time to relationship and eventually break up happens . Sometimes we easily say doctor didn't do there best when we loose someone but we don't see there struggle and pain whole declaring that patient dead. Doctors are also humans so obviously they feel pain. Doctors job is very critical as its related to patients health. So one mistake and it ends .
27:35 love the bonding between senior doctor and junior ( sunbae and hoobae) ❤.
Doctors perform surgeries for 15, 20 hrs they get exhausted, depressed, they are fighting inside also with themselves.
I just wanna give a big Hug❤
이런 영상 촬영할수있으니 너무 대단하시네요. 선생님들 늘 건강하세요. 오늘도 고생하셨습니다. 늘 사랑합니다.
no wonder in hospital playlist, the patients are coming from far n need to stay overnight at seoul to get a check up.
korea was so famous for cosmetic surgeon...only?
Whoever made this documentary I hope this ends up on Netflix. They are the Frontline saving so many lives under a pressured system.
My dad used to tell me "In america, they will ALWAYS treat you and then bill you later, so you will be fine...just riddled with debt, but in korea they wont treat you if you dont pay so most poor ppl used to have to just wing it."
본질은 의료수가가 개차반이라서요 😢😢😢 다들 알아도 한국민들은 안고쳐요~~~의사들 돈 번다고 착각하니깡😂😂😂
As a doctor watching this, it really felt the emotion of the family’s patients.
good episode
Useless documentary never explaining why there are not enough surgeons outside great Seoul...a willingly policy from the state?..not enough motivated students?...a too demanding academic exam? Here in Europe our hospitals are collapsing due to financial lacks due to political decisions that generate exhausted nurses and doctors
You can't say the real reasons since it's politically incorrect, so the only thing you can do is play the sad violin and clutch your pearls
Gets many views, eh?
Doctors really work their hardest. ❤❤
Feel like hospital playlist real live
its so lovely to see the respect paid to elders.
WTF 1:51 a warning sticker not to assault doctors?
It's the same at my hospital. Sometimes the patient family member will assault the nurse and doctor if they cannot accept the bad news
It’s everywhere all around the world
Much respect to these heroes in white. ❤
From USA I say God Bless these doctors!
CNUH hakdong,, bring back memories when i was a orthopedic surgery resident rotation back in 2012 at chonnam ❤
Typical east asia country problem... too much focus in their big city...
Japan have same problem like that....
the answer is quiet easy, accept overseas/foreign doctors. im sure there would be lots of applicants
Problem is the language barrier.
@jonny_laguna there are hospitals everywhere. What do you mean. Have you been here?
Language barrier is a real thing! As an oncologist i need to councel patients daily and sometimes one cancer patient takes around 30 minutes. And you can't do that without being fluent in korean. Second the medicine is really advanced in Korea we as doctors have to take multiple exams for working there for the long term!
Eat moderately,do a bit of exercise walking will do . Will make u stay away from hospital
Not if you have an emergency
not unless you have an emergency, youre pregnant, you're disabled, elderly, and so many more factors that contribute.
Even if you're a "healthy" individual, you never know what can happen in a matter of seconds or days.
- sincerely, a med student.
Our bodies are amazing when it is sick, it will do whatever it can to return to it's normal functions. But the reality of the human body is that no matter how healthy we live, we are forever cursed by age and how fragile our bodies are in times of emergency.
CRNA and prior ER/ICU nurse here in Virginia, USA. Why are these critically ill people riding so long to this hospital? They don't have life flight or flight nurses/paramedics?
Damm, the first eight minutes, so familiar. (I'm a doctor, work in Nigeria).
Since the pandemic nothing is the same. We never had trouble finding doctors. Now everyone seems to be short staffed. Appointments are not right away but months later. Never in my life have I experienced what is taking place.
I feel like I am watching real life medical kdrama series 🥲☹️🤍 every lines of a patient that are saying is exactly what I have watched bfore :’((
