The Chairman explained the circumstances leading to her decision to resign as the company’s Representative Director (CEO). These circumstances include an upcoming investigation by the Korean Prosecution into the Chairman herself and a related travel ban, which would restrict her ability to travel outside Korea. This situation would impede her ability to engage with Chinese investors and effectively fulfill her duties as CEO.

It was proposed that Seok Song Kang, who is currently serving in dual roles as Secretary and Director, be appointed as the new Representative Director. The Chairman noted that upon this appointment, Mr. Kang would resign from his role as Secretary, and a new Secretary would be appointed during this Board meeting as part of the next agenda item.
After reviewing Seok Song Kang’s qualifications and the necessity of this appointment, and with the unanimous consent of the Directors present,
RESOLVED, that Seok Song Kang’s appointment as Representative Director (CEO) be approved as presented in accordance with Section 3-5 of the company’s Articles of Incorporation.
Agenda 2: | Approval of the Appointment of a Secretary |
Following the approval in Agenda 1, which appointed Seok Song Kang as the new representative director (CEO) and created a vacancy in the secretary role, the Chairman highlighted the necessity to fill this position.
The Chairman proposed that Sook Rye Min, who is currently serving as a Director of the company, be appointed as Secretary, transitioning her responsibilities from Director to Secretary.
After careful consideration of Sook Rye Min’s qualifications and the specific needs of the company that led to this proposal, and with the unanimous consent of the Directors present,
RESOLVED, that the appointment of Sook Rye Min as Secretary, transitioning from her current role as a Director of the company, be approved as presented in accordance with Section 3-5 of the company’s Articles of Incorporation.
Agenda 3: | Approval of the Appointment of a New Director |
The Chairman explained the necessity for appointing a new director following the transition of Sook Rye Min from her former role as Director to Secretary, as resolved in Agenda 3.
It was proposed that Jong Sun Kim, the former CEO of the company, be appointed to fill the directorial vacancy created by Sook Rye Min’s role transition.
After a comprehensive review of Jong Sun Kim’s qualifications and the requirements for this appointment, and with the unanimous consent of the Directors present,
RESOLVED, that the appointment of Jong Sun Kim as a Director of the company be approved as presented in accordance with Section 3-5 of the company’s Articles of Incorporation.
