[the bell Lawyer Profile] Attorney Il Roh Kim, a 'Next Generation Leader' with Multifaceted Charm
Attorney Il Roh Kim, Corporate and Financial Advisory Expert Influencing C-level Executives
LIN (Managing Partner Jin Seok Lim) is a law firm that has grown rapidly in recent years, achieving KRW 29.6 billion in revenue last year, with a three-year revenue growth rate of 54%, attracting much attention in the market. Founded in 2017 by Kim & Chang alumnus Jin Seok Lim, the firm grew by merging with IT specialist Tae Eon Koo's Tech & Law in 2019, and is recognized for its competitiveness in corporate counseling, including M&A, finance, capital markets, TMT, and intellectual property rights.
LIN’s M&A team is comprised of lawyers from major Korean law firms such as Kim & Chang, Yulchon, and Shin & Kim. The team is led by senior lawyers such as Young Jae Shin (26th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute) and Hyun Su Do (30th class of the JRTI), and includes US attorney Hyun Sang Youn from Macquarie, and it has recently been further strengthened by the addition of Hae Kyung Sung (33rd class of the JRTI) and Tae Joon Bae (37th class of the JRTI) from Kim & Chang.
As one of the next generation leaders of LIN's M&A team, Kim plays a pivotal role in the M&A team with over a decade of legal experience, having advised large corporations and domestic and international PE firms on high-profile transactions. After graduating from Seoul National University with a double major in psychology and economics and working in Japan and Singapore as a member of the Consumer Strategy Team at P&G's Asia Headquarters, Kim went to Yonsei University School of Law with the goal of becoming an expert advisor for corporate transactions based on his strategy and marketing experience in global companies. He then gained corporate law experience at large law firms such as Kim & Chang and Lee & Ko, where he worked in finance, M&A, and compliance, and was admitted to the U.S. bar in both Illinois and New York the following year after studying at the University of Chicago in 2019. Kim joined LIM last year as a partner in the firm's Corporate, Finance, and M&A team because he wanted to take an active role in driving growth at a young and evolving firm, and he says he's been rewarded by the firm's increased profile over the past year.
Kim's philosophy is that legal advice should help clients make practical business decisions, so he emphasizes communication with C-level executives and advises them not only on risk analysis but also on strategies and implementation plans to address risks, including M&A and financing transactions, PMI, and internal control related to new domestic and international regulations (compliance). Major advisory cases include CJ Group's acquisition of Mars, Turkey's largest movie business, and the sale of Tirtir, a global cushion powerhouse.
Industry insiders describe Kim as a "smart guy" who provides fast and accurate advice and has excellent communication skills. "Due to the nature of our work, we often have to make decisions on deals within a short period of time, and Kim is smart enough to analyze and advise even if he only looks at the documents for a moment," said Sungho Won, deputy CEO of private equity firm ATU Partners. He added, "Kim not only quickly and accurately points out legal risks, but also gives advice on how to eliminate risks and carefully checks contracts." A business executive who has maintained a long relationship with Kim while handling M&A at a large company also expressed strong trust in Kim, saying, "Legal advice can be vague in nature, but Kim gives clear and detailed opinions," and "He not only understands the client's concerns, but also actively finds and suggests unthought-of areas."
Kim expressed his ambition to firmly establish the firm as a mid-sized law firm that helps companies grow by providing high-quality advisory services on par with major law firms to mid-sized companies and startups, and to create a new wave in the hierarchical law firm market by building the brand power of 'LIN.'
LIN's Corporate Team is highly specialized and experienced, providing comprehensive and responsive one-stop legal services to meet all the needs of corporate clients regardless of industry, sector or country. For all legal matters arising from the establishment of a company to the management, growth, listing, M&A, restructuring, bankruptcy and liquidation (dissolution) stages, our experts in various fields such as finance, antitrust, M&A, human resources, labor and employment, taxation, intellectual property rights, government regulation, and other disputes work closely and organically to provide prompt and multidisciplinary services, so please contact us at +82-2-3477-8695 for assistance.

LIN's Jae Hak Lee represents Exo's Chen-Baek-Xi in an 'all-out war against SM'
The members of EXO Chen-Baek-Xi (Chen, Baekhyun, and Xiumin), who left SM Entertainment to form their own agency, have pointed out SM Entertainment's failure to fulfill its obligations.
Jae Hak Lee, an attorney of LIN's Entertainment & Sports Team, represented EXO Chen-Baek-Xi and their independent agency, INB100, and held an emergency press conference at the Shilla Hotel in Seoul. He claimed that "SM Entertainment has not fulfilled the condition of guaranteeing a 5.5% distribution commission rate for album and digital music sales that it had promised to Chen-Baek-Xi's independent agency, INB100."
Chen-Baek-Xi notified the termination of their exclusive contract with SM Entertainment in June of last year, claiming it was unfair, and the two sides subsequently agreed to limit the management relationship to EXO’s group activities. However, SM Entertainment is demanding 10% of the artists’ individual activity revenues without guaranteeing the agreed upon 5.5% commission rate, which is the standard for Kakao affiliates.
In response, LIN's Jae Hak Lee, as Chen-Baek-Xi's legal representative, announced four demands to SM Entertainment, including: acknowledging that it has defaulted on its obligation to guarantee a 5.5% distribution commission rate for album and digital music sales promised as a condition of signing the agreement dated June 18, 2023; ceasing to demand 10% of the revenues generated by artists under their individual names through INB 100; and immediately providing settlement data for the period after the conclusion of the agreement on June 18, and settlement data and supporting materials for the existing exclusive contract, and said he will actively consider legal actions if the demands are not fulfilled.
At the center of K-culture's global expansion is the entertainment industry, which utilizes various cultural contents. K-pop idols are leading the market expansion through generational changes and advancements, and the sales of agencies are also increasing every year, and Hive, which includes BTS and others, grew its asset size by 440 billion won from last year to 5.25 trillion won in fair assets, becoming the first Korean major entertainment company to enter the "conglomerate" category this year.
The K-pop idol market is most differentiated from the music markets in other countries by its unique "incubation system." The Korean entertainment industry, which is maintained by the tension between the three forces of agencies, artists, and fans, is centered on people and contents, and is therefore exposed to various disputes such as those related to contracts, intellectual property rights, and copyrights. In recent years, YouTube, social media, and AI technology have led to an increase in cases involving malicious commenters and fake news, and disputes to protect the rights of entertainers are also on the rise.
LIN's Entertainment & Sports Team handles all legal issues related to albums and music, movies, videos, dramas, broadcasting, internet, new media, and theaters, including licensing, copyright infringement, antitrust issues, and labor law issues, and provides optimal legal services across the entertainment industry by representing leading K-pop stars, global artists, and large entertainment groups. We also have extensive experience in platform establishment, mergers and acquisitions, contracts, and disputes in foreign locations related to the overseas expansion of Korean contents, so please contact our Entertainment & Sports Team at +82 2 3477 8695 for assistance.
