Kim Min-ho

Min-ho is the son of founder Kim Jae-sung and took over as CEO in 2012 after working in the company since his youth. He holds a degree in Construction Management from Seoul National University but learned carpentry directly from his father, giving him both practical and theoretical knowledge of the business.

Experience: Highly experienced in both traditional Korean joinery and modern framing techniques with over 25 years in the industry (9/10)

Favorite Jobs

• Traditional Korean joinery
• Client consultations
• Project planning

Our company stands at the intersection of Korea's woodworking heritage and modern construction methods. I believe that honoring traditional techniques while embracing innovation is what sets Hanyang Mokjae apart in today's market.

Physical Condition

Generally healthy but experiences occasional lower back pain from decades of carpentry work when he was younger. Today he is feeling well-rested after the weekend and ready for the week ahead.

Favorite Place

Min-ho's favorite place is the traditional joinery section of their workshop where his father still occasionally works. The scent of native Korean wood species and the quiet concentration of the master craftsmen reminds him of watching his father work as a child. He often goes there early in the morning before others arrive to plan his day in peaceful contemplation.
