Our Journey
Master and disciple together, Opening the future of Web3 security in Busan
Anam 145 is a cybersecurity and blockchain specialist firm founded by researchers from Korea University’s Graduate School of Information Security.
The connection between master and disciple, born in the classroom, has transcended academic research—leading to the founding of Anam 145 by Professor Junghee Lee in 2023 and the joining of Co-founder Junsik Sim in 2025.
Together, they are building the Anam 145 of today.

The decision to establish our headquarters in Busan, rather than Seoul, reflects our firm commitment to “realizing genuine Web3 infrastructure within Busan, the Special Blockchain Regulation-Free Zone.”
Leveraging our foundational cybersecurity technology, Anam 145 directly designs and implements blockchain and Web3 infrastructure.
As a result, we developed ‘BusanWallet’—the first-ever Web3 wallet for a Korean media organization—in partnership with Busan Ilbo. Furthermore, we have proven our technical excellence in the global market through our exhibition at CES and our participation in the UN (UNDP) Liberia project.
