Overview

Story & Pictures Media, also known by its Korean name 글앤그림미디어, is a South Korean television-series production company. The company was established in 2017 by Hwang Jee-woo, who had previously worked as a producer at AStory. Its business is centered on the development and production of scripted television content, placing it within South Korea’s drama-production and broader entertainment-content sector. Public reference material identifies the company as a subsidiary of Kakao Entertainment by 2021, connecting it to one of South Korea’s major entertainment and digital-content groups. The available information does not provide a detailed account of its founding capitalization, headquarters, distribution arrangements, annual output, or current corporate structure. It also does not establish a standalone consumer product portfolio beyond television-series production. Story & Pictures Media is associated with a roster of Korean screenwriters and creative professionals, including Joo Hwa-mi, Jung Hyun-jung, Jung Yoon-jung, Kang Eun-kyung, Kim Bo-hyun, Jane “Je In” Kim, Kim Min-seo, Kwon Eum-mi, Lee Ji-min, Lee Sung-eun, and Ma Jin-won; several are described as co-managed with CAMP ENT. These relationships indicate a production model built around writer development and the packaging of original scripted projects. Because the supplied reference material is limited, information about the company’s current activity, completed productions, executive leadership, international licensing, and present ownership beyond its reported Kakao Entertainment affiliation remains incomplete.

History

Story & Pictures Media was founded in South Korea in 2017 by Hwang Jee-woo, a former producer at AStory. The company entered the market as a television-series production business, a field in which Korean production companies commonly combine project development, writer collaboration, production management, and relationships with broadcasters or streaming platforms. The available reference material does not specify the company’s incorporation details, initial projects, financing, or launch strategy, so its early operating history cannot be reconstructed in detail. The company’s identity is also represented by the Korean name 글앤그림미디어. Its publicly identified creative network includes a number of Korean writers and screen professionals, among them Joo Hwa-mi, Jung Hyun-jung, Jung Yoon-jung, Kang Eun-kyung, Kim Bo-hyun, Jane “Je In” Kim, Kim Min-seo, Kwon Eum-mi, Lee Ji-min, Lee Sung-eun, and Ma Jin-won. Reference material notes that some of these relationships were co-managed with CAMP ENT. This suggests that Story & Pictures Media’s activities extend beyond production administration into the organization and development of creative talent for scripted projects, although the available sources do not define the precise contractual arrangements or each individual’s status. By 2021, Story & Pictures Media was identified as a subsidiary of Kakao Entertainment. The affiliation placed the company within Kakao’s wider entertainment structure, alongside businesses involved in music, film, television, webtoons, web novels, and digital distribution. The significance of the transaction or corporate integration is not described in the supplied material, and no purchase price, ownership percentage, or exact date is available. Accordingly, it is best understood as a reported group affiliation rather than a documented financial event. The available information does not list specific television series, release dates, broadcasters, streaming partners, awards, international sales, or subsequent leadership changes. Nor does it establish whether the company remains independently active at the present time. Its documented historical profile is therefore that of a Korean television-production company founded in 2017, built around producer Hwang Jee-woo and a network of writers, and reported as part of Kakao Entertainment by 2021.
