A group of medical professors, "Ministers of Education and Welfare must declare the increase in medical school invalid and step down."

The National Emergency Response Committee for medical school professors issued a statement calling for Deputy Prime Minister and Education Minister Lee Ju-ho and Health Minister Cho Kyu-hong to step down immediately, saying they were nothing but servants of the rebellion.

He also called for the two ministers to apologize for threatening medical students and medical doctors before stepping down and declare the source of medical school increases and medical reform policies invalid.

In addition, he argued that the government should create an "organization dedicated to normalizing medical education" on behalf of presidents, deans, and professors in order to autonomously readjust the quota of universities and reduce the number of students on mass leave.
