Once complete, the building will be more than an office. It will strengthen Korea’s entertainment ecosystem and amplifying the nation’s cultural influence worldwide.
Managing delivery end-to-end
We were appointed to oversee JYP Entertainment’s entire delivery process, from selecting design and specialist architectural firms to appointing contractors and supervising construction. Our role has spanned advisory, cost and commercial management and full project oversight.
We’re guiding design and construction decisions, establishing and managing the budget framework and applying rigorous cost controls to reduce financial risk.
Through close collaboration we’re ensuring technical and operational support throughout all stages of the project.
