The story of Ko Chang-hyun, head doctor at Miple Korean Medicine Clinic

01

The twins were born

The joy was double, but so was the burden on my wife's body.

The weight she gained after childbirth did not come off easily.

Watching my wife, who had given birth to twins,
slowly lose her smile,
I decided to make it myself.
02

My wife slowly lost her smile

With round-the-clock childcare and a changed reflection in the mirror, her heart grew heavy along with her weight.

As the husband and the director of a diet Korean medicine clinic, I had to watch that time from the closest distance.

Along with the weight,
her heart grew heavy too.
03

Medicine that only suppresses appetite was not enough

Medicine that only suppresses appetite broke down her energy and spirit before her weight.

What a worn-out person needed was not a medicine that makes you eat less, but one that gives you the strength to hold on.

“How can I regulate appetite,
improve the body, and lose weight healthily?”
04

More than 10 years of researching and making it myself

I chose the herbs one by one, built a pill-making room in the clinic, and refined the prescription by dividing it into stages.

Not handing it to others, but having the prescriber make it in person: that way has stayed the same from then until now.

The medicine that replenishes while slimming: GONG BI JIN YAK

We added Gongjindan to the diet herbs so that the energy and spirit that tend to give way during weight loss would be protected together.

Down to the vacuum low-temperature drying that protects heat-sensitive musk and deer antler, the prescription and its manufacturing method became a patent (No. 10-2865645).

We do not prescribe medicine
we could not give to our own family

So Miple has one standard.

The medicine that began for my wife now stands beside many people on their diets.

“There is plenty of cheap medicine,
but you have only one body.”
