Say NO to smoking with NicAssure Sidekick
NicAssure Sidekick with no harmful substance has finally arrived in Korea
CEO Byeonggyu Jin of NicAssure Korea (LJ Liney)
EnjoyNicAssure like a real cigarette without worry about your health
Due to limited smoking areas, increase of cigarette tax and negative public response, the scale of smokeless cigarette market has grown to be more than $2.3B in the US. Located in Arizona, US, NicAssure LLC developed world’s first stick type smokeless cigarette. You can smoke NicAssure Sidekick like a normal cigarette without a lighter. Unlike electronic cigarettes, each NicAssure contains 2mg of pure nicotine and it is consistently vaporized in molecules even in high temperature so that you can have real smoking effect with little nicotine and you can inhale 200 to 400 times per NicAssure. It does not discolor your teeth nor produce smoke, ash and smell like a real cigarette. You do not need a battery, charger, fumigat or liquid like electronic cigarette but you just simply carry it with you to have a smoke in every place as it can quench your thirst by one inhaling of NicAssure. According to a test result done by Arista Research Institute in Virginia, US, NicAssureis free from 4,000 harmful substances and 43 cancer-causing agents. Within 3 years of its release, NicAssure is currently being sold in the US, Canada (27,000 stores) and Korea (by LJ Liney). It is also scheduled to be sold at US Army bases in the world.
CEO Byeonggyu Jin of NicAssure Korea said “You don’t need to smoke in a remote place anymore but everywhere and whenever you feel like it. It is not regarded as cigarette in the US because it does not produce secondhand smoke and you can choose from 4 tastes of NicAssure: Normal, Mint, Berry and Peach. There is increasing number of smokers in Korea as well as non-smoking areas at the moment and NicAssure’s marketability ,therefore, is very high.”You can buy NicAssure in various retail shops or street stalls nationwide and it will soon be sold at convenient stores as well. CEO Jin is planning to make 10% of the smoking population in Korea to use NicAssure within 3 years and to introduce NicAssure US’s another hit product ‘First Step’ to Korea soon.

What’s the current market condition in Korea and what’s your prospect?
It is sold in many retail shops and we are planning to supply it to Korean Army bases after successfully launching in US Army bases in Korea. We are targeting the smokers who tend to smoke in a limited space like taxi drivers. As Korean government is introducing more tougher rules to smokers, we are expecting to see an increased demand for NicAssure.
What is your new product First Step?
If NicAssure is an alternative cigarette, First Step is a non-smoking aid which improved the side effect of the existing products like nausea and skin troubles caused by gums or patches. Each package contains 4 First Step and you can quit smoking within a month. We have signed a MOU with LJ Liney for selling First Step in Korea and we think that Korean market has a huge potential for the product.
What are your future products?
All of our products are very safe as the amount of nicotine is controlled by an auto mated system. Currently, we are planning to develop a variety of related products such as gums and toothpick but with much more improved quality.
