Jang Donghyun, Vice Chairman of SK Inc.

Jang Donghyun, 63, vice chairman of SK Inc., has stepped down as CEO of SK ecoplant. He will retain his position as vice chairman of SK Inc.

According to the Financial Supervisory Service's electronic disclosure system on November 5, SK Inc. disclosed that Jang was removed from its list of specially related persons effective November 1. Jang, who holds approximately 120,000 shares of SK Inc., had been classified as a specially related person because he served as a registered director at an affiliate.

Jang served as CEO of SK ecoplant from late 2023, leading the group's business restructuring, or rebalancing, before stepping down from the position.

SK ecoplant had been pursuing an initial public offering (IPO), but as conditions proved unfavorable, SK Inc. decided to make it a wholly owned subsidiary.

Jang is regarded as an expert in strategy and finance at SK Group. He joined Yukong, the predecessor of SK Innovation, in 1991 and went on to serve as head of strategic planning and chief financial officer (CFO) at SK Telecom. He later served as CEO of SK Telecom and SK Inc.
