Hoban Group has brought forward its executive reshuffle, naming second-generation owner and Chief Planning Officer Kim Dae-heon as chairman of Hoban Construction’s board. The appointment places an owner-executive at the apex of the group’s governance structure. The group also named Song Jong-min, Vice Chairman and CEO of Taihan Cable & Solution, as Senior Vice Chairman of Hoban Group and CEO of Hoban Construction. Song will oversee urban redevelopment and large-scale projects in Seoul and the metropolitan area, while Kim will help shape mid- to long-term growth strategies and key decisions. Hoban Construction will operate under a dual CEO structure after Byun Boo-seop became president. Kim Joon-seok was promoted to president and CEO of Taihan Cable & Solution and will lead Hoban Group’s Strategy Division, focusing on the U.S. and Europe, ultra-high-voltage direct current (HVDC) and submarine cables. Jeong Seong-gi became president and CEO of Hoban E&C, with responsibility for renewable energy, data centers and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects. Kang Shin-joo was promoted to vice president and CEO of Hoban Hotels & Resorts. The appointments remain subject to procedures including board approvals at each subsidiary, as the group seeks faster execution and sustainable growth amid uncertain business conditions.
