Greeting

As the 41st President of the Korean Pharmaceutical Association (KPA), I, Kwon Young-hee, am deeply honored to extend my greetings.

The KPA has long stood at the forefront of public health, fulfilling its responsibility to safeguard the well-being of the people through the proper implementation of pharmaceutical expertise.

Pharmacists in Korea have served as the most accessible healthcare professionals, ensuring the safe and appropriate use of medicines. Even in times of national crisis—such as the spread of infectious diseases or critical shortages of medicines—we have remained steadfast in our duty to protect public health.

In an era faced with rapid changes—driven by super-aging populations, advanced digital technologies, and artificial intelligence—the KPA remains committed to upholding the public value of healthcare. We strive to ensure that every citizen has access to high-quality medical and pharmaceutical services.

Through these efforts, we not only promote better health outcomes but also help ensure the sustainability of the national health insurance system. Most importantly, we are committed to strengthening the pharmacist's role as one of the most trusted and respected healthcare professionals in our society.

Moving forward, the KPA will do its utmost to foster a healthcare environment where pharmacists can fully utilize their expertise to enhance the health and quality of life of the people.

“A healthier future for Korea begins with us—Korean pharmacists.”

Your interest and support are vital as pharmacists strive to shape a new paradigm in public health for the betterment of society.

Thank you.
