When Korea became a country of doctors
Imagine that, by 2050, Korea becomes acountry of medical doctors. Even in asmall town, you could find so many doctors’ clinics and sometimes even ahospital, as well. It all looks so convenient, but something is not quite right. Since well before the early 2020s, many Korean parents have wanted their children to become medical doctors, as the job market is unstable and highly constricted. In their eyes, doctors enjoy both a stable, high-income career and social prestige. There is also no retirement age for doctors, so they can open a clinic until their health declines from old age. It is no wonder, then, that sending their children to medical school has been fashionable among Korean parents for the past few decades.

Academics and watchdogs have documented the mechanics: collect identifiers, append other demographic or behavioural signals, then craft hyper-personalised messages that land in the quiet spaces of the person’s inbox or social feed
