In 1967, Maria Obstetrics and Gynecology opened where the Maria Fertility Hospital (Sinseol-dong, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul) sits today, leading to the creation of the Maria Medical Foundation. At the time, the doctor willingly visited patients' houses with an old house-call bag even in the early mornings, no matter where a patient lived. This founding spirit became the root of the hospital's principles and commitment to its services.
Maria Fertility Hospital ranks number one in in-vitro fertilization cases, accounting for approximately 30% of the total cases among fertility hospitals. The hospital opened branches so that patients can conveniently experience the medical know-how of Maria Fertility Hospital no matter where they live across the country. The branches provide optimum diagnosis of problems through close collaborations among the branches.
The hospital has become a globally renowned fertility center, going beyond its unrivaled number-one position in fertility medicine in Korea. The hospital is dedicated to finding the best solution through research, and helping infertile patients realize their dreams of having a baby to create a healthy and happy family.
Maria Fertility Hospital is moving forward with the philosophy and heritage it inherited from the Maria Medical Foundation.

The ancient tombs in Bangi-dong were discovered during the land readjustment project of Jamsil-jigu District in 1975. A total of eight ancient tombs were excavated until 1976, and the site was restored into a park in 1983. The Bangi-dong area was originally a low line of hills with an altitude of 30-50 meters above sea level, but it has been made into flatland for urban development purposes. Tomb numbers 1 to 6 lie on the same hill, while tomb no. 7 and 8 are located on another hill a short distance away.
All eight tombs have circular burial mounds. The insides of the a tomb feature a square or rectangular-shaped burial chamber with earthen ground and stone walls, and a passage leading from the tomb entrance to the chamber. However, details of the burial chambers vary by tomb. Most of the tombs had been robbed before the investigation, but a few relics such as plates and pots have been excavated. At the time of excavation, the relics were presumed to have come from the Baekje dynasty (18 BC-660 AD), but it is now estimated that they date back to the Unified Silla Period (676-935 AD).
