The History of Whoo Gongjinhyang Gun Jayang Special Set (3pc)
A Royal Court Ritual, Reimagined for Everyday Skin
The History of Whoo built its name on a simple premise: recreate the herbal skincare rituals once reserved for Korean royalty, and make them wearable for a modern morning routine. The Gongjinhyang Gun Jayang line sits at the heart of that idea — a nourishing, ginseng-forward set designed for skin that looks tired, uneven, or simply older than it feels. This 3-piece special set brings the core steps of that ritual together in one box, so you can start the routine without guessing which pieces to combine.
Gongjinhyang translates loosely to "tribute fragrance" — a nod to the herbal blends historically prepared for the royal court. Whoo's modern formulas lean on ginseng and other traditional botanicals, paired with rich, slow-absorbing textures that suit drier or mature skin types looking for a more comforting daily feel.
What's Inside the Gun Jayang Special Set

| Gongjinhyang Gun Nourishing Lotion | Second step — seals in moisture with a silky, non-greasy finish |
| Gongjinhyang Gun Revitalizing Cream | Final step — a richer finishing layer for evening or dry-season use |

Why Australians Are Adding This to Their Shelf
K-beauty routines built around layering — a balancing water, then a lotion, then a cream — have become a familiar staple for Australian skincare shelves, but the luxury end of that category is harder to find locally. This set gives you a way to try Whoo's signature ginseng-forward approach without piecing together three separate purchases, and without the shipping delays of ordering directly from Korea.
- Apply the Balancing Water to clean skin, patting gently until absorbed.
- Follow with the Nourishing Lotion across face and neck.
- Finish with the Revitalizing Cream, focusing on drier areas.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
The formulas are fragranced and herbal-extract based, so we recommend a small patch test on your inner arm 24 hours before applying to your face, as with any new skincare set.
How long will one set last?
Used as a daily 3-step routine, most customers find the set lasts 4-6 weeks depending on how much product is used per application.
Can I use this alongside my current skincare routine?
Yes — the set layers well after cleansing and before sunscreen or makeup. If you use active ingredients like retinol or exfoliating acids, apply those separately and bring this set in on alternate days.
Is this the same formula sold in Korea?
Yes, this set is sourced from an authorised Korean supplier and ships in its original retail packaging.
