Education and Academic Qualifications

With a profound academic background in medicine, I graduated from a top-tier university in South Korea. I earned my Bachelor of Science with Honors (Summa Cum Laude) from KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology), followed by a Master of Medicine from the College of Medicine at Kyung Hee University, and completed my doctoral coursework as part of a collaborative research program between KAIST and another institution. This foundation has equipped me with solid interdisciplinary theoretical knowledge and strong research capabilities.

Professional Experience

I possess extensive clinical management experience in dermatology and plastic surgery, having held key positions at several renowned medical institutions:

Director, Cheongdam Oracle Dermatology Clinic
Director, Wonjin Plastic Surgery Clinic
Director of Dermatology Center, Eolgeolbon Plastic Surgery Clinic
Director, Infectious Disease Clinic

Currently serving as Chief Director at Egol Clinic, where I oversee overall medical quality assurance and core diagnostic and treatment operations.

Academic Roles

I serve as President of the Korean Society of Plastic Surgeons, the Korean Society of Dermatology, and the Korean Society for Aesthetic Medicine. I actively participate in industry academic exchanges and standard-setting initiatives, dedicated to advancing professional development in these fields.

Clinical Philosophy

I adhere to a refined diagnostic and surgical integration model. Rejecting assembly-line approaches, I emphasize the physician’s direct involvement throughout all stages of patient care—from initial assessment and treatment planning to surgical execution and postoperative management. In clinical practice, I consistently strive for perfection and precision in medical procedures, providing safe, personalized healthcare to patients seeking aesthetic enhancement with rigorous professionalism.
