“The A-List is based on extensive research conducted by Asia Business Law Journal. To identify the top 100 lawyers in South Korea, we turned to thousands of in-house counsel within the country and around the world – as well as partners at international law firms – and asked them to tell us which lawyers should make the cut. Nominations were made by professionals at a wide range of South Korean and global companies, financial institutions and law firms.”
