Why 'Yaman'? There's a clear and straightforward reason. '(Ya)' comes from the German word 'yea,' equivalent to 'yes,' indicating affirmation. '(Man)' means 'man,' referring to 'people.' Things beneficial to humanity, things that make people happy, things through which people can affirm themselves... all these are affirmed by 'yes.' YA-MANIt still takes 'invention and innovation' as its motto. ForYA-MAN'People' are the most valuable intellectual property. Because without each person's talent, perseverance, and effort, it would be impossible to create unique products. What do beauty devices need now? What must be done? How to achieve it? These questions must be pondered by 'people,' relying on everyone’s thinking. Believing in the power of people,YA-MANits purpose can be achieved. Hoping to become an enterprise beneficial to humanity and able to fully leverage human potential, thus it is calledYA-MAN'.
