‘K-Safety’: Introducing Korea’s Disaster Response Model
Cho Hang-joo (center), coordinator Kwon Ju-ri (right), and Lee Ro-woon (left) brief foreign journalists on the role of the Regional Trauma Center and helicopter EMS operations at the rooftop helipad of Uijeongbu St. Mary's Hospital in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, on November 27, 2025. The center is the largest and most active trauma facility in northern Gyeonggi and works closely with the 119 emergency services. Director Cho wears an aviation suit jacket and backpack instead of a traditional doctor's gown and hand-carried bag, as regular gowns can be caught in helicopter rotor blades.
