죽은 다음에 청심환

죽은 다음에 청심환 -- Administering medicine to the dead.

By using the example of giving medicine to someone who has already passed on, this proverb aptly captures a situation where the solution to a problem is devised too late to be useful. (사람이 죽은 다음에야 약을 구한다는 뜻으로, 때가 지나 일이 다 틀어진 후에야 뒤늦게 대책을 세움을 비유적으로 이르는 말.)
