It has been revealed that Jung Chang-geon, the eldest son of former KBS announcer Noh Hyun-jung and former HN Inc. President Jung Dae-sun, has become the largest shareholder of HNIX, a company related to Hyundai Motor Group.

According to Biz Korea on the 28th, Jung Chang-geon, born in 2007 and currently 19 years old, recently secured 39.74% of HNIX shares, solidifying his position as the largest shareholder.

HNIX recorded sales of 76.6 billion won and an operating profit of 3.7 billion won based on last year's figures; however, its debt reached 64.5 billion won, reportedly placing it in a state of complete capital impairment as of the end of last year.

According to the shareholder status in HNIX's 2025 audit report, following largest shareholder Jung Chang-geon (39.74%), other shareholders include Cha Dong-won, HNIX CEO (18.50%); Jeong Mong-jun of the Asan Foundation Lee (President) (11.75%); HL Holdings (10.39%); Hyundai Materials (8.95%); and Jeong Mong-jin, Chairman of KCC Group (5.17%). However, it remains unknown what specific background led to Jung Chang-geon acquiring these shares or whether he will directly participate in future management.

Previously, HN Inc., led by Jung Dae-sun Jeon (President), underwent a severe management crisis and was sold to Taecho E&C, a subsidiary of the SM Group, in 2024. During the subsequent sale process where Taecho E&C disposed of its 59.74% stake in HNIX, eldest son Jung Chang-geon acquired 39.74% of those shares, emerging as the new largest shareholder.

Former Announcer Noh Hyun-jung joined KBS as part of the 29th general recruitment in 2003 and gained significant popularity through variety programs such as 'Imagine Plus'. She later left the broadcasting industry in 2006 upon marrying Jung Dae-sun Jeon (President), the third-generation Hyundai family member, dedicating herself to supporting her husband and raising children. They have two sons: eldest son Jung Chang-geon, born in 2007, and second son Jung Chang-seong, born in 2009.
