Ralph Lauren has partnered with the Korea National Cancer Center Foundation to establish The Ralph Lauren Center for Patient and Family Recovery at the National Cancer Center of Korea in Goyang, South Korea. This marks the company's first cancer center in Asia and is part of its ongoing commitment to expanding access to quality cancer care globally.
The center, expected to open in 2028, will provide a dedicated recovery environment for cancer patients and their families and caregivers, serving the Seoul metropolitan area and communities across South Korea. It will be integrated with the NCC's broader supportive care programs, including psychological counseling and family education.
According to Han-Kwang Yang, president of the National Cancer Center of Korea, 'Cancer care should extend beyond treatment itself to helping patients return to their daily lives and improve their quality of life.' Ralph Lauren, executive chairman and chief creative officer of Ralph Lauren Corp, echoed this sentiment, stating, 'Our support in the global fight against cancer has always been guided by the belief that everyone deserves access to high-quality care and the resources that can help them and their loved ones through every stage of the journey.
As the number of cancer survivors in South Korea continues to grow, with over 2.7 million people living with or beyond cancer, the NCC is strengthening a patient-centered approach to support recovery, long-term health, and well-being.
