SK Retains Key CEOs, Overhauls Energy Leadership

SK Group announced its 2027 executive reshuffle on October 30, retaining the CEOs of major affiliates, including record-setting SK hynix, while overhauling leadership at energy and chemical units. SK Innovation named Jeong Seung-il, a former industry ministry vice minister and KEPCO president, as its new CEO, replacing Jang Yong-ho, who will focus on SK Holdings. Jang remains CEO of SK Holdings, and Choi Chang-won stays as chairman of the SUPEX Council. The move reflects a shift from last year's large-scale generational change to stability and investment in AI and advanced technology, with a new Southeast Asia division to strengthen overseas business.
