Telecom carrier KT appointed Kim Young-shub, the former CEO of LG CNS, as its new CEO.
After months of an unprecedented leadership vacuum at the company since March this year, Kim has been voted to head the company at the extraordinary general meeting on Wednesday morning.
Kim joined Lucky Goldstar, the predecessor of LG's subsidiary LX International, in 1984 after graduating from Korea University with a bachelor's degree in business administration.
His prior roles include heading IT service provider LG CNS's high-tech and solution business divisions from 2008 and then taking on the role of chief financial officer of LG Uplus in 2014. A year later, Kim was appointed as LG CNS's CEO and retired in 2022.
Kim's tenure ends in March 2026.
