Some of the notable projects produced under Lim include The Bridge for Viu and HBO Asia and Liar for Astro.

According to a statement to the press, Lim will now be taking control of Square Box Pictures, which is VSM’s theatrical distribution arm, as well as its long-standing television distributor, Vision Plus Entertainment. Along with these duties, Lim’s expanded remit also includes overseeing the media group’s joint venture, Landmark Films.

Lim said that she recognises the great opportunity all around, especially with the significant and growing international interest in Asian content.

“I hope I can use my new position to help make the industry look more widely, and beyond the more obvious markets of Korea and Japan, to realise that Southeast Asia is also growing entertainment powerhouse with a lot to offer,” she added.
