Yeoinseok et al.: History of Korean Medicine

The historical awareness of the changes that Korean medicine has made from the beginning to the present is a book that deals with many problems in Korean medicine, Korean medicine and medicine and industry, not only Western medicine, but also unlicensed. North Korean medicine also tried to include the Korean medical history as part of it. In addition, Korean medical science has tried to cover many historical facts and phenomena in South Korea based on a sense of history that is not only a problem of the past but of the present. The voice in medical school has been growing: we need to improve medical literature education. The need is derived from the reaction that education in medical schools now has only to the scientific aspect of medicine. Because of the fact that medical care is not properly aware of the harsh reality that it takes to deal with patients and their doctor-sharing relationships, and, in fact, to be a society around it, it has been a problem for medical students who have been trained only in science to do so. While many health care problems now facing South Korean society can be solved by improving the values and institutions of society as a whole, there is not much that medical personnel who are responsible for health care services can improve by clearly recognizing the medical realities of Korean society, the academic identity of medicine, and the professional status of medical people. This perception of reality and academic, professional identity is not something that can be achieved simply by presenting an ideal model and demanding that it be similar. To do so, we need to have a good historical understanding of what the medical situation in Korean society is and what the health care activity is doing in it has led to today.
