is the only delivery hospital in Taebaek City, but it is not the preferred place for local mothers.

Among the 188 newborn babies who reported births in Taebaek last year, 17 were born in public delivery hospitals, and the ratio has been similar since 2016 when the hospital was established.

experts say that you should consider making a large sum of money to create a public hospital at the eye level of the residents, or conversely narrowing the target patient to a poorer class or emergency.
