While the political and economic sectors of Changwon City and Gyeongnam Province are working to establish the medical school, the religious community is now lending its support. The regional consensus wishing for the establishment of a medical school is expanding and uniting to address the poor local medical conditions.


Changwon City, in joint cooperation with Gyeongnam Province, is urging the establishment of a medical school in the Changwon area to resolve the shortage of medical personnel and inequality in medical services within the province. In March of this year, the Changwon Medical School Attraction Citizens’ Promotion Committee was launched, and the campaign to collect one million signatures from one million citizens has surpassed its target of 300,000. The desire of local residents demanding the establishment of the medical school is growing stronger.



Choi Ju-cheol, president of the Changwon Special City Christian Elders Association, stated, “Changwon City has all the necessary conditions for establishing a medical school, including national and public hospital medical infrastructure, high-quality living conditions, and the medical needs of one million citizens,” adding, “There is no other local government in the country that meets the conditions for establishing a medical school as well as Changwon.”
