At 27, I joke that I have the body of a 72-year-old — a true fragile reporter. Dragging my tired self to the China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai, I set out to explore the latest innovations in medical technology. What I didn't expect was to meet a Korean scholar who has been studying Traditional Chinese Medicine for years. Our conversation revealed not only his deep fascination with Chinese medicine, but also how China's healthcare technologies are winning global recognition.
