World-renowned cancer authority "Tobsters are more effective in treating cancer...Why?"

If the Korean people live to the life expectancy of 83, the probability of cancer is 38%, which means that 4 out of 10 people can get cancer at least once in their lives.

Even though it is 100 years old, it is only possible to prevent and treat cancer that remains a homework.

Dr. Kim Eui-shin, a world-renowned cancer treatment authority from Korea, came up with a surprisingly simple solution.

Reporter Jung Yoo-jin reports.

Dr. Kim Eui-shin, who works at MD Anderson, the top cancer hospital in the United States, and has been selected as the best doctor in the United States 11 times.

American patients compare cancer to chronic diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes, and Koreans accept it as a death sentence.

[Kim Eui-shin / MD] (Americans) put big ads in churches. I'm going to die. (Optimized) Many people gather together, eat together, and talk together. (Optimized) People from Korea are just staring at the ceiling in the hotel room.]


It is important to eat, drink, and manage your physical strength in cancer treatment, but you are often overwhelmed by fear and discouraged.

He recalled that these people, who put their minds down with jokes and were optimistic about treatment, overcame the disease better.

[Kim Eui-shin / Doctor of Medicine] Gangsters among patients from Korea. These people have very few side effects. I'm not interested in anything other than drinking, drinking wine and playing golf.]

He stressed that it is important to drink enough water and fill up with protein, which is the same as a pillar of a building, but you should choose something that is less oily, such as duck meat.

[Kim Eui-shin / Doctor of Medicine] Delicious is sweet or fried. It's delicious when it's greasy. I'm sure it's bad for you to think that delicious things are bad for you.]

A recent phenomenon that global cancer authorities are concerned about is the depression of people in Korea.

He stressed that it is important to do your best in a given situation and accept the situation when it is not at your disposal.

[Kim Eui-shin / MD: There are 1,600 volunteers in the hospital called MD Anderson. (Omitted) But all 1,600 of them are cancer patients. You have to be open like this.]
