Korea Seeks Indian Healthcare Heroes to Combat Aging Crisis
South Korea is facing a severe demographic crunch, rapidly becoming one of the world’s oldest societies. To address this looming crisis, the nation is turning to India’s skilled healthcare professionals for assistance.
This was revealed by Lim Sang Woo, Charge d’ Affaires at the Korean Embassy in India, on Friday, August 1, 2025. He highlighted the significant shortage of medical personnel in South Korea.
The Korean government is exploring various avenues for collaboration, including recruitment programs and skill-sharing initiatives. This presents a significant opportunity for Indian doctors and nurses.
