When I was young, my dream was Heo Jun
When I was very young, like a police officer or a firefighter,
I wanted to be someone who helps others.I first learned about the profession of a Korean medicine doctor in high school, at a time when the drama 'Heo Jun' was gaining popularity. I was captivated by that drama and began to dream of becoming a Korean medicine doctor.
As I studied hard with that dream in mind, I naturally ended up entering a college of Korean medicine.

A student who was 95kg and overweight
As a student, I was constantly studying, so my eating habits were poor and my lifestyle was a mess. Using being busy as an excuse, I would just grab a quick meal and enjoyed eating instant foods like pizza and hamburgers.
As a result, my weight reached nearly 95kg.
Being overweight led to poor physical condition and declining health, so I realized that before I could take care of others, I had to become healthy myself.
A -25kg weight loss diet, becomes my destiny
The hardest part when I first started my diet was reducing carbohydrates. Since I was already addicted to carbohydrates, it was incredibly difficult.
So, after trying various diets, I encountered the carbohydrate-controlled diet.
Whenever I craved sweets, I consumed low-carb snacks, and as a Korean medicine doctor, I researched medicinal herbs that could help with weight loss, appetite control, metabolic enhancement, and studied herbal medicine that could stabilize blood sugar—which is the most important factor—and that became today's Daeat-dan.
That is how I succeeded in losing a total of 25kg over 6 months, and I have maintained it ever since.

- 01We focus on weight loss
- At first, I treated various conditions alongside weight loss. But I realized that trying to do everything meant I couldn't do anything well. Even just looking at weight loss, the related theories are so vast, and I still feel there is so much to learn.
- So, I decided to focus on weight loss.
- Because of this, not only myself but everyone at the clinic has been able to focus more deeply and study weight loss, and we have been able to reward our patients with more professional weight loss treatment.

- 02Because I am someone's family before being a Korean medicine doctor
- I remember all of my patients, but the most rewarding moments were when mothers and fathers who had been taking medication for high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes for over 10 years not only lost weight but were also able to stop their medication. Seeing seniors regain their health through weight loss is truly fulfilling.
- Also, as a father and a husband, I felt how much weight loss was needed after experiencing childbirth. With personalized prescriptions, nutritional checks by professional dietitians, and close management by dedicated consultants, I personally prescribe and gift Daeat-dan to my relatives and acquaintances before and after childbirth.
- For every single person who needs weight loss, I always treat them with the heart of caring for my own family.
-
- 03A place where anyone can lose weight healthily and comfortably
- My ultimate goal is not to be number one in weight loss in Korea, but to be number one in weight loss worldwide.
- You might think it's a grand dream, but there are many people around the world suffering from obesity. I just hope that Daeat can be of help to those people.
- I will always strive to make Daeat a place where anyone can lose weight healthily and comfortably.
