Dedicated to pharmaceuticals since its foundation, Chong Kun Dang has overcome many challenges,while continuing to grow and contribute to the advancement of Korea’s pharmaceutical industry.
In the days when Korea imported 100% of the raw materials required for medicines from abroad, we built Korea’s largest plants for chemical
synthesis and fermentation, making it possible to produce pharmaceutical ingredients locally using our own technology. From there, we had driven Korean Pharmaceutical Industry with this breakthrough on the path toward modernization.
Furthermore, we became the first Korean pharmaceutical company to export products to the US market through the obtainment of the U.S. FDA
approval. Now, on its 77th anniversary, we promise to put all efforts to lead continuous change and innovation, positioning Chong Kun Dang as a
global pharmaceutical company with a competitive edge in the international market.
