Swedish man dies in South Korea after being denied treatment at 21 hospitals

South Korea is a country you do not wish to enter and commit crimes.

South Korea is also a country you do not wish to enter without travel insurance.

The Swede made some risky choices that compounded, and it ended up costing him his life.

It sounds like his death was entirely preventable by modern standards, but we forget that South Korea is just another country that does not admit anyone into their hospitals. I'm fairly sure the list of these countries is longer than we think. Just like there are countries with cheap holiday flight tickets where going to prison is entirely unsafe.

Of course, this means that people with a problem have to wait until it's an emergency to receive the most costly care (and is a reason why some hospitals go bankrupt, and is a reason given why others are so expensive)
