Dongkuk Steel said on the 3rd that it carried out 2026 executive appointments for major management reshuffles and organizational restructuring.
The group said the personnel moves and restructuring focused on strengthening group-level strategic functions and streamlining the business structure to overcome the business downturn.
First, DongKuk Holdings appointed Executive Director Jeong Sun-uk, who had served as Dongkuk Steel Mill head of finance (chief financial officer, CFO), as head of strategy.
Based on experience leading overall financial operations in the steel business, Executive Director Jeong will oversee the group's mid- to long-term strategy and key tasks.
Dongkuk Steel Mill appointed four new executives in the planning, finance, export, and Incheon plant management sectors.
The company said it focused on strengthening on-site decision-making and execution in the business.
Dongkuk CM established a "global sales division" under the sales office in line with its strategy to expand global operations.
To enhance competitiveness in port and logistics operations, Dongkuk Intergis appointed Choi Woo-il, a senior executive vice president who heads Dongkuk Steel Mill's sales office, as vice president.
Dongkuk Systems reorganized into the IT infrastructure sales, DX solutions, and DX innovation divisions to strengthen customer-centered service competitiveness and systematically enhance group-wide IT and DX capabilities.
