Carlos was formerly the head of omni-channel business team in Cheil HQ for three years. He comes with over 22 years of multi-disciplinary experience, and has spent the last 12 years in Cheil. Carlos Limseob Chung replaces Will Jin as part of routine reshuffle. Will is back in Cheil Headquarters at Seoul to take on the position of head of Korea business.
Carlos Limseob Chung joined Cheil Worldwide in 2009 and went on to become an executive in 2022 and then became the new managing director for Cheil South West Asia Region.

Speaking on his appointment, Carlos Limseob Chung, managing director Cheil SWA said: “India being the most dynamic market in the world is considered to have great potential in becoming a Global Hub for Cheil Worldwide.
“Our businesses are changing. And so are the expectations that clients have from their Agencies. This is changing the advertising businesses globally. Clients no longer look towards the advertising agency for communication solutions alone. They expect us to be their business partners and help drive their business together. This is really huge and for us to deliver on this we need to change.
“And while we continue to fortify our relevance for Samsung, we are planning to invest aggressively in India to focus on growing our Non-Samsung portfolio along with Experience Commerce.”
