The government submitted a 2027 integrated‑care budget to the National Assembly that falls short of civil‑society demands, covering less than one‑fourth of the amount requested. On the 4th, a coalition of 206 organisations—including the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions, the Korean Federation of Persons with Disabilities, the Korean Social Welfare Solidarity, the Korean Solidarity Economy, and the Care‑Future Association—issued a joint statement denouncing the proposal. The groups called for a substantial boost in regional project funding, infrastructure investment, and dedicated personnel. They specifically demanded regional‑specialised project funds of 2.214 trillion won, personnel costs of 409 billion won, and additional resources for local care services, noting that the current draft does not meet these needs.
