According to the cosmetics industry on the 27th, Seo recently entered a 'medical leave' following internal company procedures and has not reported to work since the 1st of this month.


Seo joined Amorepacific as a regular employee in January 2017 but resigned once in June of the same year. At that time, she completed an MBA at the Yangtze River Business School in China and worked at JD.com in China before returning to Amorepacific in 2019 as a professional in the Beauty Sales Strategy Team. Since then, she has been receiving management succession training, including transferring to the Amorepacific Luxury Brand Division AP team in January last year.



An Amorepacific official explained, “Seo used the general leave of absence system, which other employees can also freely use for a set period,” adding, “The reason for the leave is personal information and therefore cannot be disclosed externally.”
