In this article a comparison is made between medical science and the ancient medical knowledge systems of two countries with different cultural backgrounds. To this end, the official curricula and current science textbooks of both countries were reviewed. Based on this review, it is established that traditional medicine is present at the basic level of education in Mexico and at the higher level in Korea. Therefore, both countries include national culture in science education, albeit in different ways.
