Abstract: A number of researchers in Korea have tried to set-up the production of radionuclides and develop new radiopharmaceuticals for several decades. Thanks to their 60-year endeavor to advance the field of radiopharmaceutical sciences, now we have a lot of research units and facilities in Korea. Still, there are huge number of issues to be solved in radiopharmaceutical sciences; however, our efforts will be continued to develop new radiopharmaceuticals and to apply the new radiopharmaceuticals into nuclear medicine field.<br />Competing Interests: Conflict of InterestRan Ji Yoo, Yun-Sang Lee, Kyo Chu Lee, Dong Wook Kim, Dong-Yeon Kim, Yearn Seong Choe, and Jae Min Jeong declare no conflict of interests.<br /> (© The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Korean Society of Nuclear Medicine 2022.)
