Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical Launches 'Retro Lemona-san' to Celebrate Lemona's 41st Anniversary... Exclusive Sale at Costco View original image

Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical, a company specializing in over-the-counter drugs, announced on the 20th the launch of ‘Retro Lemonsan’ to celebrate the 41st anniversary of Lemonsan.


Lemonsan was first introduced in 1983 as the first effervescent vitamin C product in Korea. Approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety as a quasi-drug, it has maintained the number one market share in the powdered vitamin C segment since its launch, establishing itself as the ‘national vitamin.’


The new product, ‘Retro Lemonsan,’ is a retro version that reinterprets the original Lemonsan packaging from its early days with a modern sensibility. It is available for purchase at Costco stores nationwide and on the Costco online mall.


This product comes in a large package of 180 sachets, providing a six-month supply when taking one sachet (2g) per day. Each sachet contains 500mg of vitamin C along with vitamins B2 and B6, which help relieve physical fatigue and reduce melasma and freckles.


A representative from Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical said, “Since Lemonsan is a product loved by people of all ages, we expect ‘Retro Lemonsan,’ which carries a retro sentiment, to evoke nostalgia among older generations and offer a unique feeling to younger generations. We plan to continue presenting Lemonsan in fun and diverse ways through marketing that communicates with consumers.”



Meanwhile, Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical, established in 1957, is a company specializing in over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. Its flagship products include ‘Lemonsan,’ ‘Jahasaengryeok,’ ‘P.M,’ ‘Minol Eftroki,’ ‘Gyeol Collagen,’ and the ‘Calo series.’
