Son Yeji, General Director of the Paulnua brand, said in an interview with Asia Economy on the 22nd, "Paulnua is popular among women from their late 20s to mid-30s for its simple design that can be naturally worn in daily life," adding, "We are achieving continuous sales growth doubling every year, and this year's sales target is around 10 billion won."

Paulnua is a women's bag designer brand pursuing the slogan "Just for you." It means becoming a brand that has value worth consuming, not only for oneself but also as a gift for others. Director Son explained, "Unlike existing bag brands, we create products in everyday wearable colors such as black, brown, and ivory that customers frequently reach for," and added, "By adding a vintage mood, we present designs differentiated from other brands' products."

Paulnua bags also excel in terms of versatility. Director Son emphasized, "Our representative products include Boston bags that fit 13-15 inch laptops and the Mini Garden Bag canvas line," and said, "The Boston bag is large and sturdy even when carrying a lot of items, making it popular among working women. The Mini Garden Bag canvas line not only has ample storage space but is also made of lightweight materials, making it highly practical. It has received great customer response, selling more than 400 units per month on average."

This year, Paulnua will make a full-scale entry into the European market. They plan to build product awareness through local influencers in Spain, France, and other countries and conduct business through their English mall. Director Son stated, "We want to introduce Paulnua's products and brand to more customers in domestic and overseas markets," and added, "We will increase awareness through collaborations with fashion platforms and department stores, and strengthen direct communication with customers through pop-up stores."
