In 2022, diabetes cases in South Korea resulted in medical spending of 1.1 trillion South Korean won. Spending on diabetes treatment has steadily increased alongside diabetes cases over the past five years. Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the body is unable to produce insulin or unable to effectively use the produced insulin. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood glucose, with sustained high levels resulting in damage to other organ systems within the body.
