Eau de Lune Winery is a family business that has continued for three generations since 1974. Top-quality grapes grown by father Park Samsu, recognized as a "master of grapes," began to shine when they met the delicate winemaking of son Park Cheonmyeong, the third-generation owner and a "master of wine." Wolryubong was created in response to consumers who said, "Please make a wine that best suits Korean palates while possessing global sophistication."

In 2005, it received the Minister's Award from the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and in 2006, it was awarded "Yeongdong Grape King." It also received the Yeongdong County Citizens' Award in 2010.

CEO Park Cheonmyeong said, "Following the BEST OF 2025 award in 2025, I am very honored to achieve a third straight win this year," adding, "We will bottle the trust in Yeongdong's soil that my father cultivated throughout his life and the faith our customers have placed in our wines, and now deliver Eau de Lune's sincerity to tables around the world."
