-Where can I get vaccinations in Korea?
1)Public Health Centers (보건소)
This is the most common and affordable place for vaccinations, especially for children and pregnant women.
For example: flu, hepatitis B, vaccinations for students.
Often free or with a very low fee.
Prior appointment is required, sometimes online.
2)Private Clinics and Hospitals
Suitable if you need it quickly or at a convenient time.
Vaccinations are paid.
You can search for such clinics on Naver or Kakao Map by entering "예방접종 병원".
3)Large University and General Hospitals (종합병원)
Usually more expensive, but almost all types of vaccinations are available, including international ones (e.g., yellow fever if you are planning a trip).
-Who should I contact?
Yes, you can first make an appointment with an internist (내과), especially if you:
are not sure which vaccinations you need;
have chronic diseases;
need a certificate or vaccination before a trip.
