University admissions start amid medical standoff

School staff members post notices related to the admissions application process for the 2025 academic year at Konkuk University in Seoul, Monday. Many universities across the country began the process, including those for medical schools, thereby making the government's plan to increase medical school quotas for the 2025 school year irreversible despite the demands of doctors to nullify the decision amid their months-long protest.
