eOne Hires for Asia Sales

Entertainment One (eOne) has appointed Alex Oe as director of sales for Japan, Korea and pan-Asia.

Based in Seoul, Oe will be reporting to Joyce Yeung, eOne’s executive VP of sales for AsiaPac international distribution. Oe will be responsible for sales of eOne’s film and television slate across all linear and nonlinear OTT platforms in his territories. Before joining eOne, Oe was VP of Asia distribution for Legendary Television and previously was the sales and acquisitions director for CJ ENM Corporation.

“I am thrilled to have Alex join the team. His extensive sales experience in both finished programs and format/co-production across Asia and worldwide will no doubt drive further growth to our business in Japan, Korea and pan-Asia markets,” commented Yeung. “Timing is perfect for us as we recently scored our first format co-production deal in Korea for Designated Survivor: 60 Days.”
