Dongsuhs owner family and special related parties lifted their combined stake to 68.48%, according to a Hansekyung report published on October 13, 2026. The increase followed open-market purchases by senior family members and puts ownership structure and succession in focus for investors.

Family Purchases Add to Succession Focus

Kim Sang-heon bought 300,000 Dongsuh shares between October 6 and October 8, taking his stake to 16.85% from 16.55%. The report said the purchases required KRW 8.11 billion and followed another 300,000-share purchase in June.

His holding reached 15.05%, while total purchases by the two family members during 2026 amounted to 1.05 million shares for about KRW 27.2 billion.

The report identified Kim Seok-su as the largest individual shareholder with a 17.09% stake. It also said Kim Jong-hee was the only third-generation family member participating in management and that he serves as a co-chief executive alongside Yoon Se-cheol.
