Seoul plans to dominate South Korean medical tourism industry
Seoul City has announced ambitious plans to increase its number of medical tourists by nearly 50% this year to 52,000. Much of this effort is focused on attracting patients from China now that visa regulations have been loosened.

Much of the effort is directed at attracting patients seeking cosmetic surgery, not just from China but Hong Kong, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, the UK, and the USA.
