@chrisorow

I write and develop film, TV, music, travel, and K-pop stories across formats.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to write, develop, edit, and produce compelling stories across film, TV, digital content, music, travel, and K-pop, while collaborating closely with clients and creative teams.

I've written and developed series proposals for Astro, RTM, and VIU, and contributed to major local film releases through Vision Works in Kuala Lumpur.

I also produce TV, stage, and film shows, collaborating with clients and writers to shape the strongest final result. My work spans story structure, dialogue, editing, and narrative writing.

As a features writer and events reporter for The Seoul Story, I've covered K-entertainment, K-pop, music reviews, interviews, and live events. I also create blog and social content, perform on stage and in voice roles, and am a published short-story author.
