Actor Lee Jung Jin finds a new home!
It’s been reported on December 11 that Lee Jung Jin (“Fugitive: Plan B,” “9 Ends 2 Outs,” “Love Story in Harvard”) has signed an exclusive contract with JYP Entertainment.
His exclusive contract with Awesome Entertainment has recently ended and he had entered the free agent market. It’s been revealed that Lee Jung Jin and Park Jin Young go way back, which helped his decision in entering the company.
This news helps the company get a stronger foothold in the acting business as Lee Jung Jin received international acclaim for his role in “Pieta”, a movie released in 2012 which became the first Korean film to win a top award at Venice International Film Festival.

For Lee Eun Jeong sadly there are no translated news, so you guys will have to believe my words as a JYPE stan who keeps stalking their official sites (they have two btw) and noticed the addition of a new actress. She won the 2004 SBS Super Model Contest and acted in popular dramas such as ‘Empress Chun Chu’ and ‘Giant’, she also participated of movies, a musical and did an OST. She was signed around the same time as Park Joo Hyung and Choi Woo Shik as this sports khan article informs and used to be signed under group dn as her korean wiki page says.

even if 3 of those news are kinda old i decide to post anyway because these are big news for jype as a company, during their whole existence they only had one actress, kim so young, and then this year, from october to december, they signed four more actors. also, with these new additions to the company along with this year's debuts, it's time to jypnation get a new family picture.

Date: 2012-12-12 05:02 am (UTC)and if you mean miss a in the last part, for some reason it always was aqe/jype's choice to pretty much promote only one single per year, for one month promotions only, idk why they do that but it's not because fei and jia are chinese because there are foreign members of other groups who have bigger promotion circles and more singles out there. idk why, but it's just aqe and jype fucking up the girls.
