[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Kim Dong-sun, vice president of Hanwha Galleria's strategy division, became the second-largest shareholder of Hanwha Gallery.

According to the Financial Supervisory Service's electronic disclosure system on the 27th, the number of Hanwha Galleria shares held by Vice President Kim as of the 20th is 2,893,860 shares, with a 14.7% stake.

Vice President Kim's stake is the second highest after Hanwha (36.15%), the holding company of Hanwha Group. It beat Hanwha Solution (1.37%), which was the second largest shareholder.

Vice President Kim bought 1.03 million shares in the market last month alone. It also bought a total of 660,000 shares by the 20th of this month. The purchase is estimated to have cost more than 3 billion won.

Vice President Kim's move to buy shares is part of "responsible management," according to the company.

Meanwhile, Vice President Kim was promoted from executive vice president of Hanwha Galleria and Hanwha Hotels & Resorts last month and is also in charge of strategic planning for Hanwha Robotics, which was officially launched last month.
