NEW YORK Hank Kim, one of two co-founding directors of Havas-owned MPG’s branded entertainment unit, has left the agency, the shop has confirmed.

MPG in 2004 hired Kim and Richard Linnett, both former Adweek and Advertising Age staffers, to set up and run the department. Earlier this year Linnett left for a similar post at New York-based Fathom Communications, a unit of Omnicom Group.

MPG chief operating officer Steve Lanzano confirmed Kim’s departure and indicated that a search is under way for his replacement.
