Health

1. What do you do to stay healthy?

Right... there are two things I do to stay in shape. The first thing is doing enough exercise... I always make sure I go for a jog or work out… The second thing is eating healthily. I try my best to stay away from fatty foods and opt for a healthy, balanced diet containing lots of protein and vitamins.

2. Is it easy to keep fit where you live?

It’s really easy to keep fit where I live, yeah... I live in a serviced apartment on the 20^th floor, and the gym is conveniently located on the 14^th floor, so I can access it whenever I want. Plus... the supermarket is downstairs, so buying fruit and vegetables is also an option for me.

3. What do you think is more important: eating healthily or doing exercise?

That’s a tough one... Typically, most Koreans have a tendency to think that both are important. Personally, I think doing exercise is more important because... with a sufficient amount of exercise, it doesn’t really matter what you eat. For example, let’s say you ate five big mac meals… as long as you run 20km, you can still be fit.

4. Do you have a good public health system in your country?

Yeah, I think the public health system in my country is pretty well developed. The government provides public health insurance for all citizens in Korea... And there’s also health insurance for tourists during their stay in Korea.

5. Is there anything you’d like to improve about it?

Well, I believe there a couple of things the government can do to improve the system... I mean, I think providing more kinds of health insurance might be an idea... Secondly, the government can also provide more rebates for patients to reduce the overall cost of public healthcare.
