Suncheon City Welcomes Dismissal of Suspension Application for National Medical School Candidate Recommendation

Collaboration with the Government and Jeonnam Gwangju Special City... All-Out Efforts for the Establishment of the Medical School and Hospital by 2027

Suncheon City recently expressed its welcome for the Gwangju District Court's dismissal of the application to suspend the execution of the decision to recommend a candidate university for the establishment of a national medical school in the Jeonnam Gwangju Metropolitan Special City.

With this court decision, the establishment of a national medical school in Jeonnam has once again gained significant momentum.

The city plans to make every effort, in close cooperation with Jeonnam Gwangju Metropolitan Special City and Suncheon National University, to ensure that the remaining government administrative procedures—such as the allocation of medical school quotas and approval for new schools by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health and Welfare—proceed without any setbacks.

Mayor Son Hoonmo stated, "The government and the integrated city must spare no administrative or financial support to ensure that a university-hospital-level key medical facility and region-specialized specialist medical functions, as well as essential public healthcare infrastructure, can be expanded in the southwestern region."

A city official commented, "We will fully support Suncheon National University and all related organizations so that a top-tier medical school and university hospital can be established as soon as possible."
