Jangheung’s Organic Seaweed Brand “SOONSOOHAEJAK”

Premium, trustworthy food
from the pristine waters of Jangheung

Among the products made with seaweed harvested from the clean Jangheung waters, Organic seaweed of Jangheung is exposed to the sun during the aquaculture process, and this process makes the fiber of the seaweed tough. As a result, the Organic seaweed is tough and rough compared to other raw seaweed, which may be unfamiliar to consumers as it is thick and tough seaweed. But it does not undergo acid treatment, so it has established itself as a safe food that you can trust and eat compared to other raw seaweeds.
