In 2020, only 2,204 thousand foreign patients accessed traditional Korean treatments in South Korea. This represents a decrease from the previous year, likely influenced by travel restrictions stemming from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Prior to 2020, the number of medical tourists seeking traditional treatments had been steadily increasing.
