Daehan Nupharm Launches ‘Pokémon Edition’ Children’s Height-Growth Health Functional Food ‘DiNU Key Up’- Newly individually recognized ingredient Hinsamdeonggul (HSy2) applied... to be supplied to 22,000 pharmacies nationwide---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Daehan Nupharm (054670) announced on the 1st that it has launched “DiNU Key Up,” a children’s height-growth health functional food, as a new lineup under its health functional food brand “DiNU:”, and will move forward with portfolio diversification and expansion into the pharmacy channel. “DiNU Key Up” is a product containing an extract of Hinsamdeonggul (HSy2, also known as Kidari vine), a newly individually recognized functional ingredient for height growth. HSy2 is a domestically produced raw material and is the third ingredient in Korea to receive individual recognition from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for its height-growth functionality. As a result of clinical trials, an average height growth effect of 0.9 cm was confirmed after 24 weeks of intake, and statistical analysis secured a high level of statistical significance with P-value < 0.0001. To strengthen product competitiveness, Daehan Nupharm has applied a Pokémon Edition package using globally popular IP “Pokémon” characters. Familiar Pokémon such as Pikachu, Charmander, and Bulbasaur have been reflected in the product design, and consumer promotions for pharmacy customers will also be carried out through limited-edition gift events such as Pikachu key rings. “DiNU Key Up” is scheduled to be sequentially supplied to approximately 22,000 pharmacies nationwide, and among them, about 6,000 pharmacies near pediatric and adolescent hospitals are planned to be supplied first. A Daehan Nupharm official said, “The DiNU: brand continues to strengthen its competitiveness within the pharmacy channel by discovering differentiated functional ingredients and carrying out consumer-friendly promotions,” adding, “As interest in children’s height growth is high, we expect a positive market response.” Meanwhile, DiNU Key Up can be purchased at pharmacies nationwide and will also be sold through online channels starting at the end of April.

Daehan Nupharm announced on the 25th that it has launched a new product, “Direct Oral Probiotics,” through its health functional food brand DiNU:, targeting the oral health market. As the demand for probiotic supplements continues to grow in the health functional food market, oral health–focused probiotic products have recently emerged as a new trend. In line with this trend, Daehan Nupharm has introduced a product designed to highlight the core functionality and formulation of probiotic ingredients. The newly launched “Direct Oral Probiotics” is formulated based on patented oral probiotics, featuring a total of 17 probiotic strains with a concentration of 3 billion CFU. The product is available in a chewable tablet form that can be consumed conveniently without water, allowing for easy intake anytime, anywhere. The company stated that this product was developed in response to growing consumer interest in oral health, emphasizing its inclusion of three patented probiotic strains known to help prevent cavities and manage oral conditions such as periodontitis. In addition, users can expect an immediate refreshing sensation in the mouth after consumption, which Daehan Nupharm sees as a key differentiating factor. A Daehan Nupharm representative said, “As consumer demand for oral health products continues to expand rapidly, we plan to keep introducing products that balance both functionality and convenience. We will continue to strengthen our health functional food portfolio centered around the DiNU: brand.” Meanwhile, “Direct Oral Probiotics” is available for purchase through the official DiNU: online store.

Daehan Nupharm has officially been recognized for its ESG management capabilities, particularly in the environmental (E) domain, by achieving a final grade of “A-” in the 2025 ESG Diagnosis and Inspection organized by the Korea International Trade Association (KITA). The ESG Diagnosis and Inspection was conducted over several months from the second half of 2025 through the end of the year. Ecosian ESG Consulting and the Korea Management Registrar (KMR) participated as implementing organizations, enhancing the professionalism and objectivity of the evaluation. The assessment adopted a more advanced method that included on-site verification of greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and actual energy usage conditions, going beyond mere document review. The evaluation comprehensively considered factors such as the environmental management system, standards and operating levels for greenhouse gas and energy management, processes for estimating and managing energy use, accuracy and traceability of environmental data, and medium- to long-term reduction targets and improvement plans. The company was recognized for securing the adequacy of its management system and the reliability of its data across all categories. In particular, the newly completed GMP-grade production facility was positively evaluated as the company reorganized its production infrastructure and energy management system, establishing an operational foundation that takes environmental efficiency into account. This achievement is significant as it not only expands production capacity but also lays the foundation for systematically advancing greenhouse gas reduction and energy efficiency improvement initiatives. Additionally, the renewal of the company’s website strengthened ESG and sustainability management content and broadened its communication base with stakeholders. Thed website clearly conveys the company’s sustainable management vision by reflecting its environmental management principles, greenhouse gas and energy management policies, and ESG promotion direction. The implementing organizations assessed that the company had built a stable environmental data management system and established an operational basis to systematically expand reduction activities in connection with the new plant operation. This outcome reflects the company’s continuous efforts to internalize ESG practices within its overall management strategy, rather than merely responding to external evaluations. Based on the results of this evaluation, the company plans to further advance its environmental management system, organically link new plant operations, ESG content enhancement, and data-based management systems, and continuously strengthen the execution of sustainable management. A company official stated, “Achieving the A- grade is the result of our efforts to put ESG management into action through field and data-based management systems, rather than stopping at declarations. We will continue to promote greenhouse gas reduction and energy efficiency improvements, enhance the transparency of ESG disclosures, and strengthen our long-term corporate value and commitment to social responsibility.”
