ABOUT DONGHYUN

Brands to markets,
culture to the world.

DONGHYUN introduces overseas brands to the Korean market and connects products with retail channels and consumers. Our experience includes a partnership with The Coca-Cola Company, overseas brand launches, placements in major Korean retail chains and licensing agreements.

Founded in 2015 with a focus on distribution, we added a culture and contents business in 2025. Today we cover food and cosmetics import/export, corporate gift sets, international cultural exchange, and the planning and management of publicly funded projects — tailored to each client's goals.
