Attorney Seohyung Lee “We will create a regulatory environment that leads to harmony between safety and innovation”
Attorney Seo-Hyung Lee, head of the Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group at Law Firm, was appointed as an advisory attorney to the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety on the 13th of last month.
The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety's advisory attorney reviews in advance legal risks that may arise during the administrative disposition process and plays the role of defending the legitimacy of the disposition in administrative litigation. In addition, when new laws or regulations are implemented, consistent interpretation standards are presented to prevent policy confusion and unnecessary disputes.
Attorney Lee will be responsible for ensuring legal stability and reliability in the overall implementation of Ministry of Food and Drug Safety policies, including responding to lawsuits, interpreting laws, and reviewing contracts. In particular, we plan to minimize uncertainty in the policy implementation process through clear legal interpretation and practical advice in new technology fields such as AI medical devices, digital healthcare, advanced regenerative medicine, and clinical trials.
Attorney Lee is a convergence expert with all qualifications as a lawyer, patent attorney, and pharmacist, and has served as a legal director and academic member of the Korean Society of Medical Informatics, an IRB and DRB member of a tertiary general hospital, a member of the Korean Medical Law Society, a member of the Korean Society of Bioethics, and an advisory member of the Future Medical Research Foundation under the Ministry of Science and Technology.
In addition, he has provided extensive experience in consulting with the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency, and affiliated public organizations, as well as giving lectures at symposiums and conferences invited to related academic societies and associations, and writing books in the life and medical fields.
Attorney Lee is the head of the Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group at Law Firm. He provides advice on various legal issues that may arise during the product development and market entry stages, such as ▲ drug and medical device approval ▲ clinical trials ▲ GMP (manufacturing and quality management standards) ▲ salary registration, and ▲ medical advertising and marketing.
In addition, we are in charge of preventive consulting and establishing post-response strategies for the overall healthcare industry, covering not only management-related risks such as the establishment and operation of medical institutions, institutional certification, and human resource management, but also administrative disposition response, criminal procedures, use of personal information and medical data, technology transfer, and intellectual property rights disputes.
Attorney Lee said, “Our goal is to minimize legal uncertainty at the stage of establishing new regulatory policies and help innovative technologies with proven safety quickly enter the market,” and expressed his ambition, “I will contribute to establishing regulations that support industrial growth while prioritizing public safety.”
Meanwhile, Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group, a law firm, has many experts in fields such as medical law and pharmaceutical law, and provides customized legal services to clients through systematic analysis.
