Dongwha Pharmaceutical was founded in 1897 as Dongwha Yakbang, the predecessor of Dongwha Pharmaceutical, in a hanok at 5 Sunhwa-dong. In 1966, a three-story building was newly constructed and used as a factory and headquarters. It was also the place where Gas Hwalmyungsoo was first produced. After expanding the headquarters to four floors in 1986, this reconstruction was decided after 57 years. The second floor of the new building will be used as a space shared with the local community through donation and leaseback.
