Comedian Jang Dong-min revealed why he chose the Korean market first, let alone a love call from a large global company.
Jang Dong-min, who appeared on YouTube channel 'Knowledge Inside' on the 12th, shared the current state of eco-friendly label technology he developed and the company 'Blue Sky'.
Jang Dong-min made the beverage label vertically so that it was removed with the label when the lid was opened", he explained the invention considering both consumer convenience and recycling rates.
With this idea, he won the Comedian's first Minister of Environment Award, and now has begun to expand his business in earnest by signing MOUs with Kwangdong Pharmaceutical and Samyang Packaging.
In particular, Jang Dong-min confessed that he wanted to start in Korea first when asked why he rejected proposals from global companies such as the United States.
He also wanted to show how Korea solves environmental problems now that K-pop and K-culture are attracting global attention"I want to make a success story in Korea and go global."," he stressed.
In response, he also clashed with his employees a lot. A large American company asked me to do it, but he said, `Wait for it.' It is because of the desire to raise Korea's status."
