In the 1950s and 1960s, the deceased promoted the introduction of technology for the sugar and chemical fiber business of Samyang Corporation and led the construction sites of the Ulsan sugar plant and Jeonju polyester plant. While serving as Samyang’s president and chairman, he expanded Samyang’s business portfolio into food and chemical materials by entering the terephthalic acid (TPA), engineering plastics, starch and starch sugar business, which is a raw material for polyester fiber. Currently, Samyang’s chemical materials business has grown into a flagship business representing the group.

The deceased emphasized on-site management.

The deceased, who pursued a life like a’warm south hill’, denied the reduction of personnel by saying to executives who were pursuing restructuring during the financial crisis that the corporate environment had temporarily deteriorated, and that employees could not be dismissed.

The deceased, who thought nurturing human resources was essential for industrial security, took office in 2010 as the chairman of the Yangyoung Foundation, the Sudang Foundation, and the Haseo Academic Foundation. In a memoir published in 2015, “The Silent Path,” the deceased said in a memoir published in 2015, “A business is realizing an industrial preservation through manufacturing. To achieve that goal, we must strive to develop technology and nurture talent. Otherwise, the permanence of the company will of course be at risk. If you don’t, it will have a negative impact on the national economy,” he said. “This was my father’s view of business and it was my creed.”
In addition, the deceased led various organizations such as the President of the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the President of the Korea Basketball Association, the second co-chair of the National People’s Promotion Committee, the President of the Korea-Japan Economic Association, and the President of the Environmental Preservation Association, contributing to the development of Korea’s economy, sports, environment and culture.
