For decades, Asian American representation in Hollywood was little more than a fleeting presence — brief moments of visibility that quickly faded from the broader narrative. Yet through the courage and vision of pioneering producers, filmmakers, and studios, authentic Asian and Korean American storytelling has finally begun to gain recognition in the mainstream.
The groundbreaking success of Parasite, Minari, Squid Game, and KPop Demon Hunters has shown the world the power and resonance of Korean storytelling — sparking a renewed sense of pride, hope, and belonging. Still, our cultural presence in American media remains limited.
Korean American Leaders in Hollywood (KALH) is committed to changing that. We’re building a trusted and supportive community that opens doors for the next generation, champions collaboration, and uplifts one another with purpose. With your support, KALH can continue to amplify Korean American talent and shape the future of storytelling for generations to come.
We believe the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. We empower and celebrate Korean Americans shaping the future of entertainment and media. Through advocacy, community, and collaboration, we champion emerging talent and leaders, and bridge Korea and the global market — advancing Korean voices, stories, and innovation on the global stage.
Our members consist of amazing, talented professionals that have extensive experience within the industry.
