[Alpha Biz= Ellie Kim] Kim Dong-sun, the youngest son of Kim Seung-youn, has stepped down from Hanwha Corporation as the group accelerates plans to establish a new tech and lifestyle-focused holding company.
According to industry sources on April 22, Kim resigned from Hanwha Corp. at the end of March. He had served as head of the Overseas Business Division in the construction unit, overseeing global projects.
The move is seen as further clarifying the management roles of Hanwha’s third-generation leadership. Vice Chairman Kim Dong-kwan leads core businesses including defense, shipbuilding, and energy, while President Kim Dong-won oversees the financial sector. Kim Dong-sun is expected to focus on the tech and lifestyle segment.
Earlier this year, Hanwha Corp. announced plans to spin off its Tech Solutions and Life Solutions divisions to establish a new holding company. Kim is widely expected to lead the new entity, tentatively named Hanwha Machinery & Service Holdings, which will integrate businesses such as retail, leisure, and robotics.
A Hanwha official said the decision was made to allow Kim to concentrate on the ongoing restructuring and the launch of the new holding company.
