Incheon Medical Support Center(Incheon Port International Passenger Terminal)
Incheon(Jung-gu) , Songdo International Business District

Incheon Medical Support Center (Incheon Port New International Passenger Terminal) 1. Overview: Incheon’s Advanced Medical Tourism Operation System Incheon has established a top-tier medical tourism operation system to streamline medical tourism processes and ensure the systematic management of related procedures. By introducing two key platforms—FPIS (Foreign Patient Information System) and MTMS (Medical Tourism Marketing System)—Incheon actively promotes local medical institutions and specialized medical tourism products to prospective international patients. Through this comprehensive approach, the Incheon Medical Support Center stands as a central resource, providing efficient, reliable support for visitors seeking both travel and healthcare services. 2. Services & Benefits * Free or Simple Health Checks At the New International Passenger Terminal, visitors can often find basic health screening tools (e.g., blood pressure monitors, BMI devices) to quickly assess their current health. This immediate feedback can be especially useful after a ferry trip or for those feeling travel fatigue. * Medical Referrals & Coordination Staff can recommend reputable local hospitals, clinics, or specialized treatment centers in Incheon. Whether you need ongoing therapy, a routine check-up, or advanced procedures, the center helps simplify the appointment process. With FPIS, they maintain organized patient information and can connect travelers to appropriate medical institutions more swiftly and accurately. * One-Stop Medical Service Incheon’s “one-stop medical service” approach covers every stage of a foreign patient’s journey: from initial pre-arrival information-gathering to post-treatment follow-up after returning home. This integrated service allows medical tourists to conveniently access essential healthcare resources, confirm travel arrangements, and receive aftercare guidance, all within one cohesive system. * Marketing & Tourist Support Leveraging the MTMS (Medical Tourism Marketing System), the center promotes Incheon’s diverse medical tourism offerings to international patients, highlighting specialized treatments, wellness programs, and unique local attractions. Beyond healthcare, the center can provide travel tips, lodging recommendations, or tour ideas—helping travelers merge medical care with a rewarding tourist experience. 3.

Julpo Ecological Park (줄포자연생태공원)
Jeollabuk-do(Buan-gun)

The Julpo Natural Ecological Park is a quiet park in the southernmost end of Buan. The park naturally turned into an ecological marshland after an embankment was built 15 years ago to protect the surrounding low-land areas from inundation. The embankment allowed reeds to overgrow and a freshwater wetland to be formed. The total surface area of the park is 163 acres, with a 40-kilometer long reed field, wild flower bed, and a ginkgo forest path. In the fall, the views of golden reeds and yellow ginkgo trees are splendid. The Julpoman Foreshore near the park was designated a Ramsar wetland in January 2010. The foreshore offers a habitat for 50 or so bird species, salt plants, and wetland animals. Also, there is a large colony of Suaeda japonica, which turns stunningly red in early autumn. This is also a filming site of the Korean drama ‘Lovers in Prague’.
