Globalization describes a process by which regional cultures have become integrated through a global network of communication. In order to communicate among different cultural groups, standardization of terminology is one of the most important steps among its processes. In the field of oriental medicine, there have been continuous efforts to communicate through various methods. Translation of oriental medical classics is one of the significant approaches in terms of transmitting medical theories and clinical experiences of thousands of years to the people of different cultural backgrounds. However, previous translation studies have had difficulties in delivering its underlying principles and assumptions due to lack of standardization of terminology. "WHO International Standard Terminologies on Traditional Medicine in the Western Pacific Region(WHO-IST)" is the outcome of developing standard terminologies on oriental medicine based on mutual agreement of researchers of Korea, China and Japan. As a movement to find more efficient methodology for communication between heterogeneous communities, this study aims to translate parts of "Classic of difficult issues(難經)" into English adopting "WHO-IST" hoping to set a model of translation study.

To produce well-qualified medical doctors, clinical training is a crucial part of medical education. To this end, teaching hospitals should be carefully selected and professionally managed. However, in Korea, there are no regulations or standards for training hospitals. Instead, some of the regulations that target teaching interns and residents are applied to teaching hospitals. In this study, we reviewed standards and regulations for training hospitals in other countries as a basis for proposing new standards for teaching hospitals in Korea. These new standards take into account the current environment of Korean medicine with the aim of designing appropriate educational programs for students and professional development systems for professors as well as providing educational resources and addressing the local community and international exchange opportunities.

The character 'yeong(營)' has been used mixed with 'yeong(榮)' from the time of "Hwangjenaegyeong(黃帝內經)" up to now. One word can have a various meaning according to the context. So it is difficult to make a precise definition. Moreover as the words in Korean medicine are abstruse, it is necessary to classify and make the meaning straight with the words like 'yeong(營)' and 'yeong(榮)'. This study is focused on classifying the meanings and examples of 'yeong(營)' and 'yeong(榮)' by the dictionary definition, examples in medical classics, examples in "Hwangjenaegyeong(黃帝內經)". From this study, we get to know 'yeong(營)' and 'yeong(榮)' was used mixed with the concept of 'yeong-gi(營氣)' which means 'transporting nutrition'. The conclusion of this study is, from the dictionary definition and the aspect of oriental medicine physiology, using 'yeong(營)' is more reasonable than 'yeong(榮)' in both cases.
