[Exclusive] T-ara Hyomin, terminates contract with Jeon Jong-seo's agency as a 'free agent'

Girl group T-ara's Hyomin (34, Park Sun-young) is invincible after leaving the agency she used to work for.

According to Ten Asia coverage on the 19th, Hyomin is a free agent after leaving Endmark, where she signed an exclusive contract in June of last year. Hyomin and Andmark took steps to terminate their exclusive contracts less than a year after signing them. Although the details of the termination of the high-speed contract are not known, the direction of activities pursued by both sides appears to have been different.

An entertainment industry official said, “I understand that Hyomin left Endmark a few months ago and is working independently without an agency.”

In relation to this, Endmark told Ten Asia, “Hyomin is not a member of Endmark,” and “It is difficult to tell you the exact date of her contract expiration.”

Hyomin, who debuted in the entertainment industry with T-ara in 2009, gained popularity by working as a solo singer following her group activities. Expanding his horizons as an actor, he also tried his hand at movies and dramas. However, recent entertainment activities are rare. His most recent work as an actor is the seesn movie 'Midnight Thriller - Follower', which was released in December 2021. T-ara's new album 'Re:T-ARA', released on November 15, 2021, is their last activity as a singer.

It seems like he is more interested in business than entertainment activities. Hyomin recently entered the alcohol business, planning Japanese-style sake in cans under her name and putting it on the market. In addition, we communicate with the public through SNS.
