Walk House Company
Walk House Company (워크하우스컴퍼니) is a Seoul-based actor management agency founded in December 2018. The company is led by CEO Kim Young-hoon, known professionally as Cha Hyun-woo, a former actor and singer from 1990s K-pop duo Yes Brown. He is the younger brother of actor Ha Jung-woo and the son of veteran actor Kim Yong-gun. The agency's flagship talent is Ha Jung-woo himself, one of South Korea's most respected film actors and directors, whose credits include The Wailing (2016), Tunnel (2016), Assassination (2015), The Berlin File (2013), and Namhansanseong (2017). Ha Jung-woo's portrayal of morally complex, physically imposing characters has made him a first-choice collaborator for Korea's top directors. The agency's full roster includes actress Hwang Bo-ra, CEO Kim Young-hoon's wife and a familiar face in Korean television and film since 2003, alongside stage and screen performers Baek Seung-hyun, Kang Do-yeon, Lee Jong-hyeok, and Kwon Ip-sae. Walk House operates as a boutique agency, prioritizing quality over volume, and has positioned itself as the trusted home for established Korean screen talent. In January 2025, the agency confirmed Ha Jung-woo's casting in a new drama series.
