Greetings
Hyun Hoon Chung
Due to my interest in medical devices that gained from medical practice and surgery, I went to the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University for two years. While conducting the research, I became convinced that it was very necessary to improve the safety of medical staffs and patients, and to develop medical devices that help diagnose and treat diseases. After returning home, I started a business that I didn't even think of. I will not forget my initial desire to value people and make a very small contribution to medical development and strive for research and development faithfully.
