The newspaper Hankook Ilbo. 3rd May 2018


The 'Gincho tablet' launched by Hwajin Cosmetics, a company specializing in cosmetics and health functional food manufacturing, which is celebrating its 36th anniversary this year, is attracting attention as a differentiated raw material.


In order to differentiate it from other companies' products, mixed raw material for wild ginseng cultured root was developed by mixing fermented wild ginseng culture root extract developed by Hwajin Bio-Cosmetics Research Institute and 30 herbal medicines such as aloeswood, Lepidium meyenii, and deer antlers in an optimal ratio.


Wild ginseng culture root extract enhances specific components of wild ginseng culture root (tissue cultured ginseng). In addition, it is a raw material that converts saponins into low molecular weight saponins (hereinafter referred to as ginsenosides) that can be absorbed in the body through the extraction, steaming, and fermentation processes of saponins.


Ginsenoside is the main active ingredient of wild ginseng, and it is decomposed into low molecular weight ginsenoside, an active ingredient that can be absorbed in the body by human intestinal microbes. It is known that more than 25% of Koreans are unable to absorb ginsenosides into the blood due to the inactivation of intestinal microbial enzymes.
