[New Year's Message] Kim Min-young, CEO of Dong-A Socio, "We Will Reach Our Goals Despite Difficult Times"

"Employees Trusting, Encouraging, and Moving Forward Together"

Kim Min-young, CEO of Dong-A Socio Holdings, expressed her aspiration that despite the international situation and economic crisis being unpredictable, this year can be one in which they come closer to achieving their goals.

In her New Year's address on the 2nd, CEO Kim said, "In the 1980s, amid the crisis in the domestic pharmaceutical industry caused by the opening of imports of finished drugs and raw materials, capital liberalization, and the early introduction of the substance patent system, we did not give up but found a breakthrough through systematic strategies. We established a research and development-centered corporate culture and launched globally competitive new drugs such as growth hormone, first-generation biopharmaceuticals, Styrene, and Zydena, laying the foundation for future growth as an R&D-focused pharmaceutical company."

She continued, "This precedent is a history of success that allowed us to move unwaveringly toward our goals even in times of crisis," adding, "Even in challenging environments, the DNA of Dong-A Socio Group has always created new opportunities through innovation and challenge."

She further stated, "As we welcome the Year of the Blue Snake, if all executives and employees open new possibilities based on wisdom and flexibility and wisely navigate the uncertain future, it will be a year in which we come closer to the goals set by our group," and added, "At this new starting point, I hope that executives and employees trust, encourage, and move forward together."
