Earlier in October, the Ministry of Justice issued an amendment to the content that allowed pregnancy to be stopped without any conditions within 14 weeks of pregnancy, and in cases of rape-induced pregnancy or incest pregnancy within 15 to 24 weeks of pregnancy.
After this government proposal was announced, the Korean Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology has argued that the termination of pregnancy without any conditions should be extended to 10 weeks instead of 14 weeks of pregnancy, and that if an abortion is desired under 22 weeks of pregnancy, it should be revised to go through counseling and meditation procedures. Abortion should not be allowed after 22 weeks of gestation as the fetus may survive outside the mother’s body.
The Korean Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology said in an appeal on the day, “I urge you to revise it quickly, reflecting the opinions of expert groups.” Said. He also said, “If a doctor kills a baby born through an abortion during a time when the fetus is likely to survive, the current law and precedent may be punished for murder, so we will not respond to the request for abortion from the 22nd week of pregnancy.” He asked the law to state the doctor’s right to veto abortion.
The Korean Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology continued, “The doctor’s right to veto abortion treatment must be legally guaranteed, taking into account the individual’s conscience and professional ethics,” he added. “The doctor requested abortion for a healthy and well-growing fetus for socioeconomic reasons. “It is a legitimate reason for refusing according to conscience and professional ethics,” he said, so the government and the legislature strongly urge the establishment of an abortion law that states doctors’ right to veto abortion.
