Mr. Ham Kyung-jun, Director of Seoul Tourism Industry Department, spoke at the event series.
Mr. Ham Kyung-jun, Director of Seoul Tourism Industry Department, said that the city has world-class medical infrastructure and extremely rich tourism products and services, so this series of events will be an opportunity to promote Seoul medical tourism in Vietnam in general and Ho Chi Minh City in particular. Through this, Seoul City and Seoul Tourism Organization hope to introduce to major medical facilities and tourism businesses in Ho Chi Minh City the quality medical tourism resources of Seoul, while promoting the image of "Global Medical Tourism City" to more potential tourists.
Aiming to conquer the Vietnamese market, “Seoul Medical Tourism Roadshow 2025” brings together Seoul’s medical cooperation units and medical tourism organizations in Ho Chi Minh City to participate in a variety of consulting activities, product experiences, health services… for both B2B (business to business) and B2C (business to customer) customers.
Seoul and Ho Chi Minh City businesses connect for trade at event series.
The highlight of the event series is the Seoul Medical Tourism Introduction Seminar and Business Consulting, which aims to facilitate meetings, connections with partners to introduce products and exchange. The Organizing Committee of the seminar focuses on strengthening the cooperation network between Seoul's medical facilities and the medical tourism sector in Vietnam, thereby building a foundation for sustainable cooperation in medical tourism between the two countries.
According to the Seoul Tourism Industry Department, about 20,000 Vietnamese tourists come to the city every year for medical examination and treatment. Vietnam is always in the top 10 countries with the largest number of medical tourists to this city. In addition, interest in Korea is increasing thanks to the strong influence of the Hallyu wave such as K-beauty, K-drama, K-food... making Vietnam a key tourism market. These are also the reasons why the "Seoul Medical Tourism Roadshow 2025" was organized, aiming to meet the growing demand for medical tourism from Southeast Asian countries, including Vietnam.
Units introduce Seoul medical tourism information at the event series.
Currently, Seoul is considered a city with many attractive factors for medical tourists such as an advanced medical tourism infrastructure system, a safe and friendly tourism environment. Typically, the list of "The World's Best Hospitals in 2025" voted by the prestigious magazine Newsweek (USA) has 16 Korean hospitals named, of which 13 are in Seoul; thereby showing that Seoul is a globally recognized medical tourism city. In addition, Seoul also owns a diverse source of wellness tourism resources, helping to enhance the pre- and post-treatment care experience, not only for patients but also for accompanying relatives, contributing to improving the satisfaction of foreign visitors when coming to the city.
