[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Kim Dong-sun, head of Hanwha Galleria's strategy division (vice president), the third son of Hanwha Group Chairman Kim Seung-yeon, is increasing his control in the distribution business by buying nearly 80,000 shares this month alone. Kim, who has steadily purchased Hanwha Galleria shares since last year and has become the second-largest shareholder, has been aggressively expanding his stake this year.
According to the electronic engineering system on the 17th, Hanwha Galleria announced on the 12th that Kim bought 28,000 Hanwha Galleria shares in the market. Kim purchased shares four times on the same day, with the average acquisition unit price of 1,426 won per share and the total acquisition amount of 39.935 million won. As a result, Kim's number of Hanwha Galleria shares increased from 3,143,860 shares to 3,171,860 shares, and his stake also expanded from 1.60 percent to 1.61 percent.
Kim also bought 50,000 Hanwha Galleria shares in the market on the 3rd. Including this purchase, Hanwha Galleria shares were bought twice this month alone.
Earlier, Kim bought 50,000 shares of Hanwha Galleria for the first time in April last year, about a month after Hanwha Galleria was newly listed after being spun off from Hanwha Solution. Since then, he has steadily bought stocks to increase his stake, and has emerged as the company's second-largest shareholder. Hanwha Galleria's largest shareholder is Hanwha Group's holding company (36.15%).
Kim is in charge of the group's new business strategy in the distribution sector based on Hanwha Galleria and Hanwha Hotels & Resorts.
