South Korea healthcare: Doctors walk off job in protest of new rules

In South Korea, senior doctors and professors at medical schools are submitting their resignations in support of striking trainee doctors.

They want the government to withdraw its plan to increase student enrollment in medical training institutes.
The government says more doctors are needed to cope with the country’s rapidly aging population.
