Hyunwoo Thomas Kim

Creator Context

Summary

Hyunwoo Thomas Kim is a Korean-American producer and co-founder, president and CEO of Kross Pictures, a cross-border company operating across Korea, India, Japan, China and the United States. After working in investment banking and at Walt Disney, he built a career around adapting Korean and Japanese books, webtoons, films and television formats for new national audiences. His producing credits include Cheese in the Trap, The Sound of Your Heart, Business Proposal, Oh Baby, The Devotion of Suspect X, Te3n, Blind, Knuckle Girl and several Indian adaptations. Kim repeatedly describes Kross Pictures’ purpose as crossing borders, cultures and media, and has invested in Indian production and webtoon infrastructure. This is a clear, sustained cross-cultural and representation-oriented business pattern, though his public record does not indicate activist campaigning, partisan politics or a broader social-justice persona.
