Newly appointed Vice Chairman Jang Ho-jin graduated from Seoul National University with a degree in Business Administration and joined the Hyundai Group in 1987.

HOLDINGS(005440), the holding company of HYUNDAIDEPARTMENTSTORECO.,LTD.

Consequently, the group plans to accelerate efforts to enhance group value, led by the newly appointed Vice Chairman Jeong.
