On this day, over 80 countries have gathered together respecting each other’s culture as a part of the NUGA family, and coming together of various cultures and backgrounds have further added to their unification. The coming 10 years may be a more difficult and harsh path to follow in comparison to the previous 10 years. In order to create a new history, there must be a strong fresh resolution pursue new challenges.

Excellent business operators We introduce the excellent business operators in Russia. (Kolyvanov Alexander) Office : Svetlaya street House 5, osier-bed town, Yaroslavl city, 150507 Tel : +7-4852-424133 Fax : +7-4852-42-41-40 E-mail : [email protected] I extend my heartiest greetings to the NUGA Best business operators worldwide. I was given the proposal related to the NUGA business in 2004. At that time, there was only one NUGA BEST HOUSE in Russia. In the first place, I bought NM-5000 and tried it by myself. I was given the opportunity to select the territory of business operation in Russia. So, I selected the territory of my current business operation in Russia without hesitation. I loaded two units of NM-5000 into my vehicle and began to search for the people in the region who had never heard of NUGA medical equipment products. The employees, including myself, loaded up the vehicle with the two units of NM-5000 and drove mainly to large cities and met with various people. While visiting each city, we directly met with the village business operators of the region, opened the two units of NM-5000, and recommended them that they should use the products. Then, we gave them explanation about NUGA business and answered their questions.

Later, we packed the products again, loaded them into the vehicle and moved to other cities on the next day. In that way, we visited 10 large cities. Clearly, this was not an easy process. In 2004, people had the distrust of new medical devices. At that time, it was difficult to talk about new business which was totally new to the Russian people. Currently, we operate 171 Best Houses in our region and see our branch offices increasing in number every month. We are setting up our branch offices even in small city with the population of 16,000, as well as large cities. We have been successful in our sales activities in every event, and have witnessed an increase in our sales. We have ambitious plans and exert our best effort to achieve greater goals. For that, we always provide educational conference and seminars, and make effort to fulfill our roles in earnest and have made strides. Currently, we offer business operators the education related to the accounting and law. We provide education to the C business operator constantly with regard to the organization management and

We broaden the territory of Ural, Russia, by simply relying on our trust with one another. wage payment, along with the education about how the business operators can have business dealings effectively with the bank. Our top priority is to help the business operators achieve success. All of the business operators have to be successful in their personal lives and NUGA Best business. I am sure that the business operators in our region are the most fantastic teams in the world! We value, respect, and help one another and are achieving the most wonderful results.

I would like to state my views. 1) I have trust in all products, education and policies of the Company to ensure the success of our business. 2) I respect and observe the principle of the Company. 3) I make effort to become a professional in my realm. 4) I always try to learn and develop myself.

Conditions for Business Operators Make sure that the NUGA Best House is situated in the best location. Make sure that the NUGA Best House is staffed with the team competent and eager to collaborate. Stock up sufficient quantity of products in the NUGA Best House. Make efforts to attract many customers to the NUGA Best House.

Why do you think that it is important to do so? By doing so, we can become the professionals. If we make efforts in our field, we can achieve success and make more people happy. What do you think are the behaviors that would lead to failure? Those who are habitual liars and those who are not upright cannot be successful. Those who do not listen to the ideas of the Company and other people and those who put their own interest above anything else cannot be successful. value without being distracted.

I think that the successful people have deep trust of the Company and combine the value of the Company with their own I am very thankful to all business operators who have proceeded with the NUGA Medical Equipment business together over the last decade. I hope that all of you would continue to be good business operators of NUGA Medical Equipment for the next 10 years. We can thrive only when we work together. I wish you great happiness, health, and may God bless you all the time!

Importance of storytelling marketing Kim Ji-ho, Senior Managing Director B/H Division

Storytelling is a brand communication which uses the stories about specific product for the advertising and promotional purpose. NUGA BEST, the leader in the experiential marketing, begins with the story called, “Mother Marketing”, to provide the best customer service and satisfaction by paying constant attention to customers and responding to them with warmheartedness, endurance, affection, family-like support, and enthusiasm. Storytelling marketing is the brand communication using the productrelated story for advertisement and promotional activities. By leveraging the storytelling marketing, we can present the real story(such as the development of the therapeutic device for mothers, creation of NUGA brand through divine revelation) related to the brand candidly, including the story about the product development process, or we can use or refine the stories from the legends, novels, games, etc., or make a parody of such stories. Through the Best House worldwide, NUGA BEST has served the role of the health protector for customers by offering a wide range of products which were developed with the best technology. However, the best technology (tecguahnological prowess) alone does not rantee that we can win the hearts and minds of customers. The best results can be anticipated when the best technology, best effort, best service and personal experience are altogether combined with the story. In this way, people have a strong desire to talk to others about their experience. Storytelling marketing is rooted in the innate nature of human beings who like to talk. We sell the story, not the products. Rolf Jensen, a futurist and speaker on the future, said that we would see the advent of the Dream Society in which businesses that provide the dream and sensibility to consumers can set themselves apart from competitors after the era of information-based society is over. He claims that the stories and dreams would create new value-added which would in turn lead to the creation of new market in the future. Successful brands always have the stories, which control the lifestyle of consumers and create unique culture of consumption. All renowned brands, such as Disney Land, Nike, Harley-Davidson, Ferrari, etc., began with the dream and story which create the reality. Rolf Jensen stresses that businesses need to focus on the Dreammarketing which

incorporate the stories and dreams into the marketing. For that, the effective storytelling is to create amazing stories and combine them with their brands. Products with interesting story are likely to captivate customers much more, compared to the products that merely emphasize excellent quality or design. For example, Williams-Sonoma, an American consumer retail company that sells kitchenwares, is famous for selling stories about happy family. The key driver for the company’s success has been the advertisements incorporating its brand story based on the craftsmanship, history, character, etc., for each product such as the cooking utensils, bowls, etc., thus making such story garner a lot of attention among the consumers. Storytelling is useful very much for the product differentiation. In contemporary society, it has become increasingly difficult to make the product image imprinted on the mind of consumers even if the product was developed through hard effort. As the society is inundated with brands, it is not easy to highlight the differentiated elements of the products. Companies may have an aura(unique atmosphere) distinguished from that of the competing brands if they leverage the story distinctive to their brands. For example, the BEST HOUSE conveys the message to the consumers that it is the third Essential Place(place for health and hope), rather than being a home or workplace. The BEST HOUSE is the customer-oriented place overflowing with happy stories. To use the storytelling marketing, companies need to identify the stories suitable for their brands and refine them properly. Companies also need to collect various opinions and take various inputs from inside and outside the company when they try to identify the stories. Recently, many companies rely on consumers to acquire the information related to the brand stories. Now, it is time that we should become excellent story tellers, not merely selling the products.

“NUGA BEST with miraculous power from unshaken faith and strong will” Korea Taereng BEST HOUSE Mr. Cho Bong-seok

I am Cho Bong-seok from Cheonghak-ri, Namyangju, Gyeonggi-do. I was born in August, 1932, and I am 80 years old. During the Korean War, I got a fatal wound caused by a bullet shot by the enemy solider in a fierce battle with the North Korean troops in the battlefield of Angang and Yanggu. Due to that wound, it was decided that I had the 5th grade disability in accordance with the Framework Act on Veterans Affairs. After I was wounded, I could not hear and my ear was running. Furthermore, I could not turn my head and could not stretch my back because I had a cramp in my stomach. I underwent the tympanitis surgery twice because bullet fragments entered my ear. Even after the surgery, the fluid kept oozing from inside my ear. And 5 decades have passed since the surgery. Doctor said that no more surgery was possible and I had to live up with the fluid oozing out. However, the fluid stopped oozing out of my ear, as if by magic, from less than three days after I attached the Tourmanium Ceramic of NUGA Medical Equipment. I was surprised and curious. So, I went to the otolaryngologist and had my ear examined. The doctor said, “What medicine did you apply? What medicine did you take?" He was amazed that the inside of my ear was very clean. I said that I did nothing but apply the Tourmanium Ceramic. The doctor seemed mystified. I often quarreled with my wife who always complained whenever I turned up the volume on TV because I was hard of hearing. This problem is gone now. Since I began to use the authentic product of NUGA, I have been hearing well and do not wear the hearing aid. And I do not have to carry the certificate of the 5th grade hearing disability any more. As I got a penetrating wound in my neck during the Korean War, I could not turn my head when people called me. I had to turn around, instead. Furthermore, I could not climb the stairs due to the asthma which plagued me for 20 years. However, all those problems are gone after I began to use the authentic product of NUGA. Now, I can climb the stairs well and stop taking so many medications. Before I tried the authentic product of NUGA, I had a cramp in my stomach and could not bend my waist due to the side effects of the penetrating

abdominal wound that I sustained during the Korea War. I could not seat myself in the chair or couch comfortably. However, miracle happened. I used the authentic product of NUGA for 5 months, enduring the pain. Now, I can stretch my back. And I stopped taking the medicine which I took for 40 years to alleviate the pain in the back. I could not get a good night’s sleep and had to urinate 3 to 4 times at night even if I took the medicine for about 20 years to treat the prostate hypertrophy. I flattened myself on the floor using the authentic product of NUGA for 4 months. Now, I can get a sound sleep at night and stopped taking the prostate hypertrophy medicine. Before using the authentic product of NUGA, I wore the ankle and knee warmers because my ankles and knees were too cold even during the sweltering heat of summer. After using the authentic product of NUGA for 4 months, my ankle and knee health altered for the better and I stopped wearing the ankle and knee warmers. As my health improved, I almost forced my wife to use the product. Then, my wife was diabetic with the blood sugar level exceeding 220, the body weight of 75kg, waist circumference of 36 inches, and suffered from dizziness. Furthermore, she snored loudly, I could not sleep well. So, we slept in separate rooms at night. After using the authentic product of NUGA, she stopped snoring loudly and could sleep well. Her blood sugar level was restored to the normal level. She slimmed down to 60kg and her waist circumference decreased to 30 inches. Before using the authentic product of NUGA, she made much effort and spent much money to get rid of the fat on the stomach in vain. Since we started using the Tourmanium Ceramic of NUGA Medical Equipment, my family has become happy. Having the Tourmanium Ceramic in the mouth stimulates the secretion of saliva and removes bad breath. So, I recommended my son that he should try Tourmanium Ceramic. And my son is very happy because he quit smoking after using the Tourmanium Ceramic. Now, I make earrings, hang the Tourmanium Ceramic in my hat, and almost decorate myself with Tourmanium Ceramic using the bracelet, anklet, necklace, etc. Before I know it, I praise the excellent efficacy of NUGA product to others and become a spontaneous promoter of happiness and NUGA Equipment products. I had bitter feeling against the government due to the side effects of wounds that I sustained during the Korean War. But things have changed totally. Since I came to know NUGA Medical Equipment, I regained health and is living as a proud father and grandfather of Korea Republic as a man of merit. I express my deep gratitude to all employees of the Company and the Director of Taereung Office, including the Chairman.

“NUGA BEST with miraculous power to bring happiness back” Malaysia BEST HOUSE in Johojaya Mrs. Ru Bao Lee

Hello! I am Ru Bao Lee. I married my husband when I was 26 years old and lived a happy life. However, I could not be pregnant even 5 to 6 years after marriage. I got my period for the first time when I was 22 years old, and I had only 4 periods a year. My husband was diagnosed with sperm defect. But I desperately wanted to be pregnant and tried various folk remedies. Also, I visited many hospitals and took various medications. I underwent artificial insemination twice in vain. Finally, I adopted a cute baby from orphanage. However, my father-in-law lost his temper and flied off the handle whenever he saw the baby because the baby was not his biological grandson. Suddenly, my mother-in-law fell down in paralytic stroke and could not use her arms and legs. So, I had to quit working, took care of her, and did all household chores, and could not sleep comfortably. Over time, I became exhausted and my health was getting worse. Then, a friend of mine introduced NUGA BEST to me. At first, I was not interested because I was overloaded with household chores. But I could not ignore the kindness of my friend who tried to give solace to me, and finally, I visited the BEST HOUSE with her. I could have the hands-on experience with the product, helped by the kind employees there.

At first, it was very painful. But as time passes by, I felt refreshed and became less tired. One day, With my mother-in-law in wheelchair and my father-in-law who was not in good health, I visited the BEST HOUSE and had the hands-on experience the product of NUGA BEST. My heart was filled with joy as I saw them smiling radiantly little by little. I talked with my husband and brought the therapeutic device to home 20 days after I started using the product. My whole family used the product for treatment three times a day. About one month later, my mother-in-law who could not move her hands and legs previously walked to and from the washing room with the assistance of a walking stick. I was amazed and started crying tears of joy. My husband refused to use the product at first. But after he saw his mother walking to and from the washing room alone, he got into the habit of using the therapeutic product immediately after he came home from work. The second miracle happened. I became pregnant. A baby was growing inside me. An event was held in the BEST HOUSE on May 26, 2012, one month after my delivery, to celebrate the birth of my baby. My husband and I enjoyed the happiness of life for the first time and the smile did not leave our face. I am really thankful to NUBA BEST for guiding our family from misery to happiness.

Let's praise our employees.

The vivid history of NUGA BEST – A woman more beautiful than a flower Kim Mi-yeon, assistant manager Administration Dept.

As the commercial song, “Beautiful women loves pomegranate”, Kim Mi-yeon, assistant manager, served the red pomegranate juice to me. I was impressed very much because it was the first time that I was served refreshments in my interview. I wondered why this upright and attractive woman did not have a boyfriend. 10 years have passed since you joined the company, and you received the Golden Key to commemorate your 10-year service at the company. These days, the gold prices are rising. Are you keeping the Golden Key well? Oh! You are asking me the question about the Golden Key first, not me! Well, many people have an eye on the Golden Key. So, I am keeping it in the dresser. I am going to hand it to my child after I marry. I think that it will be handed down from generation to generation in my family. It seems to me that it is no exaggeration to say you are the walking history of the company as you have been in the company for 10 years. Has there been any episode that comes to your mind? Well, a decade has passed. Many things flash upon me, such as the barbecue party, the first container day, colleagues, including the 10-year anniversary celebration. Above all, I cannot forget the day on which I had the job interview for NUGA Medical Equipment company. Then, NUGA Medical Equipment was located in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province. I arrived at a place near the Company and made a phone call. But no one answered my phone. I was in a state of despondency and was about to return home. Then, I got a phone call from the Company. I was asked to wait for a while. After a little while, a van arrived and I got on it. The van cruised along the winding roads through the forest. I felt that it was odd. Then, they asked to get out in front of a container! “Where am I? Is it a pyramid scheme business? Are they kidnapping me?” I was very scared. But I remembered the proverb saying “You can survive if you stay awake”. I calmed myself down and looked around. I found many Bibles. Is the company - “NUGA Medical Equipment” – named after Luke in the Bible?” So, I breathed a sigh of relief. Currently, the Company has a large and nice building. Back then, the company building was old and the company had just a few employees. It seemed that I needed to think twice about working at the company. However, I was impressed by the vision of the company and began to have trust in the people there. Now, I think that I made the right decision.

I think that it is not easy to work at the same company for 10 years. Is it because the company refuses to let you leave? No, I don’t think about leaving the company. I hope that I would be a member of this company until the last day of my life.^^ I think that I like the people, atmosphere, etc. However, I also faced a crisis and thought about quitting. The company building was relocated to Munmak in Gangwon Province from Gyeonggi Province. I was happy because the company had a new and large factory. But I was worried on the other hand. The new location was far from my home and I was not sure that I could live alone in Gwangwon Province. But I could overcome the situation with the help of Auditor Jeong Hyo-gyeong who helped me find the solution, and I have been in the company to date. You look very young for your age. What is the secret? Well….what would be the secret? I think that it is because of the young-looking genes running in families, ha-ha. I may come under fire from people if I say that! ^^ The young-looking may be sometimes a disadvantage because people can talk roughly to you as they mistakenly think that you are much younger than them. I did not wear any make-up in my early and mid twenties. Many people talked roughly to me because they mistakenly thought that I have yet to come of age. I had the inconvenience of presenting my residential registration card to prove that I am an adult. However, that is an old story. Now, there are many young people around me and I am treated like a senior citizen. I don’t know whether it is a pleasant thing or a sad thing… You are talking fast. Do you also finish your household chores fast? Well…I know that I speak loudly, but I wonder if I am talking fast, Ha-Ha. I am the youngest in my family with 1 elder brother and 1 elder sister. I think that I was the favored child because I was the youngest child in the family. I have not cooked food or cleaned up the house very often, but I try to be very perfect and make enormous effort until I finish whenever I do the household chores. So, I avoid doing them. I am sure that you are the prepared woman for marriage. How about popping the question here to your dreamboat? You can say that again! I am ready to marry. I can do the household chores and cook the food well. I would like to give birth to three children. And I have the economic ability. I hope that I can find a man who is prepared like me. Ha-Ha. That is difficult~! Who represents the next NUGA family smile? Manager_______________, who is kind and considerate, how are you doing?
