Bae, Kim & Lee LLC

With a strong bench comprised of Korean and foreign attorneys, coupled with former KFTC officials and former judges, Bae, Kim & Lee LLC is at the forefront of Korean regulation compliance and multi-jurisdictional merger filings. The team continues to expand, most recently with the hire of former judge Sangcheol Kim to the criminal antitrust and competition response centre. As a former official in the competition division of the KFTC, practice head Hongki Kim specialises in large-scale cartel investigations and consumer protection. Sanghoon Shin chiefly focuses on antitrust, merger control and consumer protection, while Kyusik Kim is a name to note for fair trade cases. Dohyung Kwon‘s practice sits at the intersection of fair trade and construction.
