ABSTRACT
With an increase in aging population and medical expenditure worldwide, primary care has been rising as a solution to these. Japan, a representative aging society which has the most elderly population in the world, also has tried to develop a primary care system and implemented many changes recently. Based on what authors experienced and observed at the points of care in Japan, we are going to review the primary care system and training strategy of family medicine in Japan and come up with some suggestions that could apply to Korea.
