Seoul Yangnyeongsi Market, the largest herbal medicine distribution market in South Korea, is located on the former site of Bojewon, a relief institution that cared for the sick during the Joseon Dynasty and brought hope to their challenging lives.

Rooted in this legacy of compassion, the historic market has evolved into a vibrant hub for herbal remedies and wellness in Dongdaemun-gu. The establishment of Seoul K-Medi Center marks a significant milestone in our journey to revitalize this iconic destination and provide the public with easy access to Korean medicine.

Immerse yourself in the rich heritage of Korean medicine at Seoul K-Medi Center. This hanok-style complex offers a unique blend of culture and wellness, featuring a traditional medicine museum, consultation rooms, medicinal food experiences, soothing foot baths, an herbal café, and a beauty shop.

Seoul K-Medi Center is poised to become a landmark in South Korea, taking important steps toward revitalizing Seoul Yangnyeongsi Market as a destination for health and wellness. Dongdaemun-gu is committed to supporting this endeavor, fostering a vibrant ecosystem that embraces both traditional medicine and tourism.

We invite you to join us on this exciting journey as we strive to make Seoul K-Medi Center a beloved destination for visitors from around the world.
