The present invention relates to a compound bearing a self-immolative linker having β-galactoside-introduced thereto. In a compound bearing a β-galactoside-introduced self-immolative linker according to the present invention, particularly, the self-immolative linker may form a glycosidic bond with a protein (e.g., an oligopeptide, polypeptide, an antibody, etc.) or ligand which has specific affinity for a desired target or with an active agent (e.g., a drug, a toxin, a ligand, a detection probe, etc.), which has a specific function or activity so as to allow the selective release of the active agent within a target cell.
