Welcome South Korean Hemp Growers!

Hemp originated from China and was transported to South Korea via the Silk Road nearly 5,000 years ago. Known locally as ‘da ma cho’, hemp was historically used for medicine, food, and textiles.

Hemp was a fundamental crop throughout both early and modern Korean society. This strong relationship lasted until 1967, when the Cannabis Control Act effectively banned its manufacture and possession.

In November 2018, the National Assembly amended the Narcotics Control Act, making CBD legal for medical purposes under the supervision of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

The amendment was motivated by a high-profile case involving a young boy with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. CBD oil helped stabilize his seizures, which led to reforms opening research and development in South Korea's cannabis industry.

South Korea is rapidly adopting CBD into multiple markets:

• Cosmetics – e.g., Kolmar Pharma using CBD-infused products
• Pet treats – CBD for cats and dogs
• Food & beverages – snacks, baked goods, drinks
• Vaping – emerging among younger demographics

The government is deploying blockchain technology in cities like Gyeongsan to monitor hemp production, enhance supply chains, provide microloans to farmers, and improve transparency and inventory management.
