The SSG Landers have initiated personnel changes following the end of the season. They are preparing for the era of the Cheongna Dome under new leadership.

On the 23rd, SSG announced, "Ki In-ju (55), CEO of SMPMC, has been appointed as the new CEO of the SSG Landers."

The newly appointed President Ki was born in 1971 and graduated from Seokgang High School and the Department of Business Administration at Sungkyunkwan University. He subsequently joined Shinsegae in 1996, serving as head of the store development team in the Shinsegae E-Mart division, Shin Gyu-gae-bal (Team Lead) at Shinsegae Property and store Gi Hoek-dam-dang (SVP), senior executive in charge of PM, before becoming CEO of SMPMC.

As this is the final season at Munhak and with the Cheongna Dome era approaching in 2028, he has taken on the heavy task of assuming the position of new CEO.

SSG appointed Kim Jae-seop (54), senior vice president of E-Mart, as the representative of the Shinsegae Baseball Team, replacing Min Gyeong-sam (President), who had been promoted from general manager to CEO through an internal personnel move in October 2024. After graduating from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Suwon University and joining Shinsegae E-Mart in 2000, he served as TA head Jin Sa-mu-guk (Team Lead), management officer of the Support Headquarters, and senior vice president in charge of planning and management at the Planning and Development Headquarters, before moving to the unfamiliar role of representative of a baseball team.

At the time, Shinsegae Group stated, "This means that capable talent will be selected as representatives regardless of rank to enable performance creation," adding, "It is a departure from the past uniform personnel system and can continuously motivate employees." Kim Jeon (CEO) worked with an enthusiastic attitude and achieved the result of SSG advancing to 3rd place last year, but this season the team dropped to 6th place, and he ultimately stepped down from the representative position after two years.

Kim Jeon (CEO) has been listed as a group advisor.
