AB - Advanced directives (AD) facilitate communication between patients, family members, and health care providers regarding the care of patients who can longer communicate for themselves. However, in Korea, the notion of “advance directives” has never been regarded as a legally endorsed expression of the patient’s intention. This article reviews the historic background and content of AD legislation in several countries, revealing the advantages and disadvantages of each type of AD. Additionally, this article argues that culturally sensitive and user-friendly AD legislation is urgently needed in South Korea.
