I'm U-Shin Kim — a Korean-American talent manager who believes great careers are built on community, not competition. Based in Vienna with my wife, two sons, and 16-year-old Pom, I've built relationships with casting directors, producers, and industry leaders across NYC, LA, and London. While most managers guard their clients, I created UGA as a collaborative ecosystem where actors support and celebrate each other. Our clients book Netflix, HBO, Broadway, and brands like American Express because they're part of a community that opens doors.
U-Shin Group Agency, based in NYC, specializes in representing actors while providing valuable opportunities for our writer clients through our WGA franchise. As we broaden our scope, we're welcoming producers, directors, and casting directors to our roster. While our main focus remains on auditions in the bustling hubs of NYC, our vision extends globally to cities like London, Berlin, Vienna, and beyond within the EU, enriching our network and opportunities for talent worldwide.
In the past, we've been like other agencies, focusing on an actor's type. Now, we prioritize considering each actor as an individual, embracing their uniqueness.
You can reach U-Shin several ways via Zoom, Phone, Basecamp Ping, What's App, Email, and even Ravens.
During a team workshop we review your Actors Access profile with you, offering suggestions based on current casting trends, your essence, and preferred roles.
A team of like-minded collaborators is working together toward a common goal.
I don't use LinkedIn. But I need a job. So, I created an account and get spammed by recruiters.
Ahemmm... A cup of coffee a day keeps the creator productive all the way.
