On the 17th anniversary of the passing of the late Mrs. Byeon Jung-seok, wife of the late Asan Chung Ju-yung, Honorary Chairman of Hyundai Group, the extended Hyundai family gathered together on the 16th.

The extended Hyundai family reunited about five months after holding the 23rd anniversary memorial rite for Honorary Chairman Chung in March. Since last year, the family has been holding separate memorial rites for Honorary Chairman Chung and Mrs. Byeon.

This year’s memorial rite was attended by the eldest grandson, Chung Eui-sun, Chairman of Hyundai Motor Group, as well as Chung Mong-joon, Chairman of the Asan Social Welfare Foundation; Hyun Jeong-eun, Chairwoman of Hyundai Group; Chung Mong-yoon, Chairman of Hyundai Marine & Fire Insurance; Chung Mong-gyu, Chairman of HDC Group; and Chung Mong-ik, Chairman of KCC Glass.

The Cheongun-dong residence was inherited by Chung Mong-gu, Honorary Chairman of Hyundai Motor Group, in 2001 and was passed on to his son, Chairman Chung Eui-sun, in 2019.
