There are many differences in the present conditions of Oriental Health care and the study of Sasang Constitution Medicine between in North Korea and South Korea. 1. The government of South Korea hasn’’t supported Oriental Medicine with administrative plans but that of North Korea has supported it positively and made efforts to systematize it. 2. The government of North Korea has considered Oriental Medicine and Western Medicine as mutual supplementary relationship and tried to harmonize them, invested human being and material resources in developing affirmative aspects of Oriental Medicine. That efforts of them made O.M of North Korea developed. 3. In North Korea, they has studied about the principles of O.M. generally in a laboratory. 4. In North Korea, only herbs nation warrant and satisfy standards and fixed orders can be circulated. 5. Because the Sasang Constitution Medicine is opposite to aspect of Materialism, they exclude that from Korean Medicine subjects. They only use them for clinical remedy. But recently, they concern Sasang Constitution Medicine more and more. So also in South Korea, we need to strengthen the political support of the government and the research of laboratory.
