Jipyong Partner Ji Hye Lee has joined Oppenheim’s Korea desk in Budapest.

According to Oppenheim, "with her extensive experience in corporate law, cross-border transactions, and legal advisory services, she is set to play a key role in serving Korean clients operating in Central and Eastern Europe."

Lee has been a Partner with Jipyong since 2017. Earlier, she worked for Kim Chang Lee as an Associate between 2016 and 2017.

In 2024, Oppenheim partnered with Jipyong to launch its Korea desk (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on November 12, 2024).

"Oppenheim’s Korea Desk provides dedicated legal support tailored to the unique needs of Korean businesses in Hungary and in the broader European market," commented Managing Partner Istvan Szatmary. "With Ji Hye on board, we are confident in delivering even greater value through culturally attuned, insightful legal guidance.
