Trainee doctors in South Korea stage mass walkout

Trainee doctors in South Korea are on a three-day mass walkout, causing red alerts in most major hospitals. Almost two-thirds of young doctors have joined the protest, leading to patient rejections and procedure cancellations. The government plans to increase medical school admissions, but doctors demand better pay and working conditions. The Prime Minister denies election agenda claims and issues a back-to-work order. Patients are advised to seek care at smaller clinics and state-run or military hospitals.
