About
Yi Jonggeun Memorial Hall is Chong Kun Dang's founding exhibition hall, created to honor the philosophy and achievements of Chairman Gochon Yi Jonggeun, founder of Chong Kun Dang, and to pass on his fearless spirit of challenge and his spirit of sharing, which saw him stand by neighbors in need while living a frugal life.

It consists of Exhibition Room 1, which traces Chairman Yi's life, the growth of Chong Kun Dang, and the history of medicine in Korea and abroad, and Exhibition Room 2, a hands-on space where visitors can experience Gochon's spirit of challenge and sharing for themselves.
