The medical school named "Uihakgyo"(醫學校) has historic meanings in several aspects. Uihakgyo was the first modern medical school in Korean history. The school, founded in March 1899 by the co-effort of Korean government and people, had been run mainly by the Korean government(Ministry of Education, 學部) and Koreans themselves including Dean Ji Seog-Yeong(池錫永), Professors Kim Ik-Nam(金益南, the first Korean physician completing regular modern medical course in Japan) and Yu Byeong-Pil(劉秉玜, one of the first graduates of Uihakgyo) throughout the period of its existence until March 1907 when it was emerged into Japanese-ruled "Daehanuiwon"(大韓醫院). The school produced 54 graduates with full medical licenses, including 19 persons graduated in 1902, first in Korean history. Except them and several practitioners trained abroad, there were only 7 regularly educated modern physicians graduated from "Severance Uihakgyo" in June 1908 until Korea was occupied by Japanese in 1910. The activity of Uihakgyo was not confined to student education, but was extended to patient care, research and enlightenment of the people. Although most of the activities are supposed as somewhat primitive in the present point of view, it is adequate to say that Uihakgyo did its best in adversity of that period. Moreover, such activities by the staff and graduates of the school lasted long after the close of Uihakgyo in 1907 and the fall of the country in 1910.
