Local private equity firm (PEF) MBK Partners has appointed Lee Je-hoon, a financial and corporate management expert with over 30 years of experience, as the CEO of Homeplus. This strategic move will strengthen implementation of MBK s projected business model for the retail business involving synergy with e-commerce.
The decision by the PEF, the largest shareholder of the struggling retail chain, seeks to lay the groundwork for an ongoing merger and acquisition (M&A) deal regarding eBay Korea valued at up to 5 trillion won ($4.4 billion).

US private equity firm bets on Douzone, Cheongna International City
By Park Jae-hyuk
Bain Capital is accelerating its investments in the Korean market with an aim of scaling up its Seoul office that opened two years ago in Cheongdam-dong, according to media reports and industry sources, Tuesday.
The world s 10th-largest private equity firm (PEF) based in Boston has become the second-largest shareholder of Douzone Bizon recently by acquiring a 4.77 percent stake in the Korean software company for 165 billion won ($146 million).
The Douzone Bizon deal came a few months after Bain Capital decided to make its first investment in a real estate project here.

The takeover of KineMaster by an overseas company has become more likely, after the Korean mobile video editing service provider s largest shareholder, Solborn, hired Nomura Financial Investment as underwriter and Kim & Chang as legal adviser for the planned sale.
The move was announced Friday, two weeks after KineMaster s major shareholders confirmed their plan to sell a combined 55.02 percent stake. They said at that time the selection of an underwriter and advisory firms was underway, but a KineMaster official confirmed earlier that Kim & Chang would handle legal issues regarding the deal.
Given that Kim & Chang is a top law firm here, market participants view its participation as an indication of Solborn s intention to talk with global players, such as Google or Facebook. The largest shareholder s decision to hire a foreign investment bank instead of a Korean one can also be interpreted as support for speculative investors.
