Meet the Founder

김종무 | Jake Kim

Burnt out by the heat and campaigns that go nowhere?
I’m not here to chill — I’m here to reset the temperature. 17 years. 10+ global agencies. Countless brand turnarounds. Let’s talk if you need a creative director who doesn’t just show up — but shows why.

We listen, and you listen.


We lean in to absorb your voice. You lean back to hear ours. That’s the Écoute cycle — cutting through
noise, distilling meaning, and turning stories into powerful messages.

Global Experience That Speaks Volumes

16+ years of creative leadership.
From W+K, R/GA, Vice, MediaMonks → to Nike, Netflix, LG, Kakao. Heard in Seoul, Amsterdam, Singapore, Paris, and Buenos Aires.

End-to-End Creative Firepower

From strategy and concept →
to storyboards, production, and final presentation.
We cover the fight from start to finish.

Why Listen to Écoute?

Because silence is overrated.
Because your story deserves more than noise.
Because when you speak, we weaponize.
And when we speak, you listen.

Écoute. Only noise worth hearing.

WE LISTEN YOU LISTEN
