South Korean Doctors' Walkout Continues Amid Government Dispute

The ongoing doctors' walkout in South Korea, protesting the plan to increase medical student numbers, presents a challenge for President Yoon Suk Yeol. This situation is reminiscent of a previous move with law schools, which led to a significant decrease in average lawyer salaries over the past decade. President Yoon Suk Yeol has urged for talks to resolve the dispute and proposed flexibility in penalties for trainee doctors who have defied the government's return-to-work order.
