I know you, you have to be private about it, but what people are doing there that they can't do here? Like, what is something you would say, "Oh, guys, everybody's doing this treatment if you can afford it, and you should do it"?
Erin AnGUEST
26:12
Um, okay.
Erin AnGUEST
26:14
So I'm gonna, I'm gonna mention stem cell treatment first.
Erin AnGUEST
26:17
So stem cell treatment, it's not allowed in the US, not allowed in UK.
Erin AnGUEST
26:24
Many, actually many other countries, like, there's quite, um, short list of countries that allow stem cell treatment, including Korea and Japan, a few others.
Erin AnGUEST
26:33
Um, so it's becoming very popular, and probably another reason is it uses something on your own, not the foreign substances.
Erin AnGUEST
26:42
So either the stem cell could be, um, derived from your own blood, your own fat, or it could drive from, um, it could be driven from your bone marrow as well.

Is it very similar there that if you're gonna go under the knife, you should stay for at least seven days?
9:33
You're saying whatever you want to do, I will set you up with the best doctor, right? So can you walk us through the moment of somebody contacting you to the moment of you, you know, getting them their treatment?
Erin AnGUEST
9:45
Of course.
Erin AnGUEST
9:45
So basically stepping back, what we do as a core value of the business is we do very thorough vetting to choose the partner clinics in Korea that are top quality and that meets the high standards that our clients are usually looking for.
Erin AnGUEST
10:00
As I mentioned to you earlier, there's more than 4,000 clinics in Korea.
Erin AnGUEST
10:03
Even as a Korean person, it's very, very tough to find the top quality doctors that are also trustworthy.
Erin AnGUEST
10:10
So we do spend a lot of time researching for the top doctors in Korea.
Erin AnGUEST
10:16
As you asked, when clients reach out to us saying, okay, I'm planning to go to Korea, let's say like in July this year, and my concerns are this, this, this, how can you help me to find a doctor? What we do is after hearing that high level interest that the clients have, We try to narrow down the suitable clinics for that very specific client concerns.
