Young low-mass protostellar sources are known to show significant chemical diversity in their envelopes at a few 1000s au scale; two distinct cases are hot corino chemistry and warm carbon-chain chemistry (WCCC). It is of great interest how the chemical diversity is inherited to chemistry of disk-forming regions. With the recent ALMA observations, we found that the chemical diversity in envelopes is indeed delivered into the disk-forming regions at a 100 au scale. Moreover, the chemical composition changes drastically from envelopes to disks. We also found sources with the hybrid chemical characteristics; both hot corino chemistry and WCCC occur in spatially separated parts of a single source. This hybrid case may be a common occurrence, while hot corinos and WCCC sources are regarded as distinct cases. This unified view of chemistry in disk-forming regions will be an important clue to tracing the chemical evolution from protostellar cores to protoplanetary disks.
