He has experience dealing with many different transaction structures and parties and has a deep understanding of the Korean Capital Markets Act and other relevant laws in Korea. Furthermore, he truly understands his client's needs in both commercial and legal aspects and represents his clients very well in both definitive agreement drafting and negotiations with other parties.’
