Zion announced in a press release that the agency, established by Kim, will work in affiliation with William Morris Endeavor Entertainment (WME Entertainment), maintaining a system similar to its U.S. counterpart.
A representative from Zion explained, "The company will be run in the form of a U.S. agency, eliminating the contract-based wage system and separating the role of the agent, management team and promoters".
Zion and WME will also work together in searching and training new talent.
Kim, who rose to fame after starring in 1999 hit film "Shiri", has been a cast member of the Emmy-winning U.S. TV series "Lost" since 2004. Her new film "Harmony" will open in theaters on Thursday.
