Abstract

INTRODUCTIONCancer has been the primary cause of death in Korea since 1983 when reporting on causes of death began. Cancer mortality was 158.2 per 1000,000 in 2019, accounting for 27.5% of deaths; the most common cancer type to result in death was lung cancer, followed by liver, colorectal, gastric, and pancreatic cancers. In 2018, there were 243,837 new cancer cases in Korea, and the most‐diagnosed types were stomach, thyroid, lung, colorectal, and breast cancers. The 5‐year cancer survival rate was 70.3% between 2014 and 2018, and the total cancer cases surpassed 2 million in 2018.1The Korean government has implemented National Cancer Control Programs to reduce the growing cancer burden. For example, the government developed the 10 codes for Cancer Prevention in Korea as primary cancer prevention for the general public, which include anti‐smoking campaigns and a national vaccination program targeting hepatitis B and human papillomavirus. A National Cancer Screening Program for the early detection of cancer and a financial aid program for cancer patients were developed as well.2The population attributable fraction (PAF) is an epidemiologic measure widely used to assess the public health impact of exposure to a risk factor in a population and is defined as the fraction
