Physicians of South Korea are not guaranteed their safe health care environment amid the recent increase in medical disputes and changed medical disputes. There has been surprisingly high tendency of criminal punishment on physicians compared to foreign countries such as Japan, England and German. This criminal punishment has caused several problems such as avoidance treatment and defensive treatments, increasing medical costs, a phenomenon of avoiding applying to specialized department with a high risk of medical accidents.
