Abstract

Given the crucial role of reviewers in the progress of academic journals, it is imperative to take a close look at review statistics. In addition to selecting the best reviewers from the past 2 years, the data on manuscript review were assessed. The Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society (JKNS) has over 700 reviewers, but only about 46% are actively involved in review process. Another concern is the significant portion of review requests (37%) are not completed. The reviewer evaluation system requires more valid data to effectively select the best reviewers. It is necessary to refresh the reviewer pool with active reviewers, refine the evaluation system, and develop a reviewer merit system to further the progress of JKNS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The article discusses the rise of medical tourism in South Korea, particularly in the field of cosmetic surgery, attracting hundreds of thousands of foreigners seeking procedures at lower costs compared to their home countries. While the industry is booming, the country is facing a medical crisis due to overworked doctors leaving traditional medicine for more lucrative cosmetic procedures, leading to shortages in essential medical care. The government is attempting to address the doctor shortage by increasing medical school admissions, but structural issues persist, impacting the quality and accessibility of healthcare in the country.

9. Displacement, Mobility, and Diversity in Korea : Diaspora Within Homeland

Author

Subjects
Migration, Internal--Korea, Cultural pluralism--Korea, Return migration--Korea, Koreans--Ethnic identity, Korean diaspora
Abstract

This book examines the transformation and the dynamic reconfiguration of borders within Korea through inter/trans-disciplinary approaches.The book offers a comprehensive synthesis for the changing geo-political, cultural, and economic dynamics among Korea's diasporas by applying the theme of “diasporas within homeland” as a theoretical lens. While diaspora remains a central theoretical perspective (often highlighting “out of home” experiences), the volume turns its gaze inward, “within homeland,” to trace internal displacement, mobility, and diversity in Korea. In addition, this volume brings diverse scholarly traditions that bridge the diaspora with a wide range of theoretical lenses and methodological approaches, such as intercultural sensitivity and adaptation, acculturation, ideology critique, alienation, national memory, and postcolonialism. The book further explores the possibilities of coalition-building between/among diverse communities. As a study of the notion of Korean identity and citizenship, this book will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Korean society and culture, Asian diasporas, cultural anthropology, and ethnicity.
