With this breadth of knowledge, diverse practice experience and know-how, she has been working with like-minded lawyers to provide quality legal services in a broader range of areas at LIN since 2021.

Il Roh KIM started his legal career in 2013 as a member of the finance team at Lee & Ko, where he specialized in corporate finance and other advisory work.
