On the 13th, LH announced that Lee Sang-wook (photo), head of the Board of Audit and Inspection's National Audit Headquarters, was appointed as vice president. Vice President Lee is a graduate of the 38th Administrative Examination and has served as head of the National Audit Headquarters, director of the Finance and Economy Audit Bureau, and director of the Audit Education Institute.


Ko Byung-wook, head of the Urban Regeneration Headquarters at Incheon Urban Corporation, was appointed as head of the National Housing Welfare Headquarters. Park Dong-seon, head of the Regional Balanced Development Headquarters, was reassigned as head of the Land and Urban Development Headquarters. Oh Joo-heon, head of the Public Housing Business Headquarters, retained his existing position and was promoted from a first-grade position to a standing director.


Following Park Dong-seon's reassignment, Lee Ji-soon was newly assigned as head of the Regional Balanced Development Headquarters. However, Lee Ji-soon holds a first-grade position and is not an executive.


The position of head of the Fair Management Innovation Headquarters, one of the standing directors, was left vacant due to the lack of a suitable candidate.



Earlier in August, LH received strong public criticism over the rebar omission, successive omissions in the full-scale investigation, and concealment of the rebar omission facts. As part of personnel reform, LH accepted the resignations of all seven executives and approved four of them.
