Clonorchiasis is prevalent in East Asian countries, and approximately 15\u201320 million individuals are estimated to be infected with this fluke globally. This review highlights the current status of <jats:italic>C. sinensis<\/jats:italic> and clonorchiasis in Korea from the epidemiological perspective involving the analysis of humans and intermediate hosts. Despite the recent decline in <jats:italic>C. sinensis<\/jats:italic> infection rate in Korea, <jats:italic>C. sinensis<\/jats:italic> infections remain endemic in 5 major river basins (Han-gang, Geum-gang, Seomjin-gang, Yeongsan-gang and Nakdong-gang; gang means river) with a high incidence of cholangiocarcinoma. A noticeable pattern involves increasing mild infections among patients diagnosed positive for <jats:italic>C. sinensis<\/jats:italic> eggs. The infection rate of <jats:italic>C. sinensis<\/jats:italic> metacercariae in the second intermediate host, freshwater fish, is also maintained at a substantial level. Thus, the One Health approach integrating different sectors and disciplines is recommended to accelerate and sustain control of <jats:italic>C. sinensis<\/jats:italic>, thereby leading to successful eradication. Health promotion <jats:italic>via<\/jats:italic> information dissemination and health education should be extended to prevent the consumption of raw freshwater fish by residents living in high-risk areas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0031182022000798","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,14]],"date-time":"2022-06-14T06:00:40Z","timestamp":1655186440000},"page":"1296-1305","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Current status of <i>Clonorchis sinensis<\/i> and clonorchiasis in Korea: epidemiological perspectives integrating the data from human and intermediate hosts"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"149","author":[{"given":"Won Gi","family":"Yoo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Woon-Mok","family":"Sohn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6734-1673","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Byoung-Kuk","family":"Na","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref22","first-page":"206","article-title":"Improvement and recent status of clonorchiasis diagnostics development","volume":"9","author":"Ju","year":"2016","journal-title":"Public Health Weekly Report"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref48","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.1984.22.2.190"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref67","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.2021.59.4.427"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref73","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.2020.58.5.513"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref21","first-page":"542","article-title":"Epidemiological studies of Clonorchis sinensis in the vicinity of River Ahnseong, Kyungpook Province, Korea","volume":"40","author":"Joo","year":"1991","journal-title":"The Korean Journal of Parasitology"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhep.2005.11.040"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref45","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.2009.47.4.359"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref70","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.parint.2016.11.013"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref58","first-page":"1696","article-title":"The infection status of intestinal parasites and the degree of infection risk of freshwater fish in 2020","volume":"14","author":"Shin","year":"2021","journal-title":"Public Health Weekly Report"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref18","first-page":"460","article-title":"Changing pattern of infestation with larval trematodes from freshwater fish in river Kumho, Kyungpook Province, Korea","volume":"21","author":"Hwang","year":"1980","journal-title":"Kyunpook University Medical Journal"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref56","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3346\/jkms.2010.25.7.1011"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref55","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.1964.2.1.1"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref42","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.2000.38.1.37"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref49","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.1986.24.Suppl.1"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref75","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3347\/kjp.2019.57.6.601"},{"key":"S0031182022000798_ref57","unstructured":"Shin, HE , Lee, MR , Bahk, SO , Lee, YJ , Ju, JW and Lee, H (2020).
