A note from the CEO

Years in quarantine and livestock hygiene taught me to follow an ingredient from its source to the finished pack. I started Gosohae in 2023 because I did not see insects only as stock to raise, or only as food. The protein and the oil in them can earn a place in ordinary life.

The oil became beyuri. The protein became Dr.CB. A plan was not the end of it. With farms in Chungbuk and manufacturing partners who know their work, we are building the path from raw material to product to market. I intend to keep making those compounds into products a person can understand, and choose.
