Abstract

In the meantime, Japanese government's medial policy in Korea made public hospital build in each district. Mission hospitals confronted necessity of cooperation and unite with each other to compete with government public hospital. So Koang Hyoe Nyo Won was dismissed and put together Pyong Yang Union Christian Hospital.
