“As a Medical Device auditor, I review and evaluate the safety of medical products and quality management system. With professional excellence, I check whether standards and regulations are accurately complied before launch of product and provide technical service and certification. TÜV SÜD is a certification body for MDR certification, and TÜV SÜD Korea recently issued the first MDR certificate in Korea. Together with a team of experts, we regularly check the latest standards trends and issues and promote professional growth. I think our role is not to point or bring out problems of clients, but to cooperate with domestic manufacturers to promote export of medical devices and development of medical device industry.”
Kyu-Jin Lee, Auditor, MHS / TÜV SÜD Korea
