History

After the Department of Medical Science at Kim Il Sung University was split up in 1948, the Pyongyang Medical University was officially established by the North Korean government.

In 1962, Kim Bong-han, a Professor of Pyongyang Medical University, reported that he had found the anatomical structure of meridian-collaterals, which he named Bonghan corpuscles (BHCs) and Bonghan ducts (BHDs).

On November 24, 2010, North Korean leader Kim Jong-il made a visit to the university.
