SBS ‘K-Pop Star‘ winner Park Ji Min has decided to sign with JYP Entertainment.
On May 21st, SBS stated, “Park Ji Min has signed an exclusive contract with JYP Entertainment, and will be preparing for a debut album in the near future.”
“SM, YG, and JYP Entertainment all prioritized the successful debut and career of the ‘K-Pop Star’ winner, and all three agencies have spoken in detail with Park Ji Min about her future,” they continued. “Taking into consideration the kind of music she would like to pursue, it has been decided that she would debut with JYP Entertainment.”
Park Ji Min remarked, “My heart races when I simply hear the names of the three agencies, and the fact that I am able to enter one of them is so surreal. I am glad I will be able to receive the meticulous guidance of judge J.Y. Park, and I will learn everything I can in order to show you a much more developed side of myself.”
SBS continued, “Lee Ha Yi who competed for the top spot with Park Ji Min, along with Baek Ah Yeon and the rest of the Top 10 and even the hopefuls that were cut before, are all receiving numerous love calls. This audition program will give birth to more new stars than any before it in history.”
Meanwhile, the ‘K-Pop Star’ representatives are carefully preparing for Season 2, scheduled to broadcast sometime this November.

Date: 2012-05-21 07:25 pm (UTC)Pretty sure this is why. It's really beneficial/a good learning experience to be mentored/in the company of someone who is still pursuing music and thus has a greater understanding of artistry, stage dynamics and generally what being a musician entails. YG and SM higher-ups are a lot more removed from that aspect, I think.

Date: 2012-05-21 07:38 pm (UTC)I think she'll probably be transferred to BigHit and work with Bang Shi-hyuk as opposed to regular JYP.
Anyway welcome to JYP nation. Maybe I'll see you when that promised tour comes to America

Date: 2012-05-21 09:24 pm (UTC)I know It's a common place to shit on sme management, but I think their bad managment is so much better than crazy randomness of jyp. so even if I get her choice I don't really think it was wise.
