His scope is not only to implement new business models but also to develop the new accounts and maintain existing ones at the newly renovated 441-rooms property. He will also help build up the team spirit and consistently inspire sales and marketing team and other departments at the property.
“At the JW Marriott Bangkok, I humbly endeavour to leverage my experience and knowledge to improve our business performance and working environment. Importantly, teamwork is essential to achieve these goals”, said DK.
A Korean national, DK joins JW Marriott Hotel Bangkok from his prior role as Director of Sales & Marketing at Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon, Vietnam.

Additionally, under his management and teamwork, they generated impressive YOY growth figures for 2018/2019 for RevPAR, ADR, Premium Paid Occupancy and individual guest segment growth (Retail, Corporate). In recognition of his achievements, DK was honored as a “Sales Special Achievement Leader in APEC, 2018”, during the BMSC Conference in Shanghai earlier this year.
