Hello, This is Walk Together.
I went to BIGHIT’s new building in Yongsan at night. As all the news said, BIGHIT and BTS is postponed to move in early 2021. So, there was new construction going on. So, it is fensed all around building and all the lights are turned off for whole building due to new construction. But, still on the way to BIGHIT’s new building, you can enjoy surrounding night view of the area. It is quite beautiful area to see at night. Let’s walk together.
안녕하세요? Walk Together 입니다.
10월의 첫 날, 용산에 위치한 빅히트 신사옥에 다녀왔습니다. 요청이 있어서 저녁에 다녀왔는데, 이전에는 앞이 오픈되어 있던 것과는 다르게 지금은 새로운 공사가 진행중이어서 가림막이 쳐져 있었습니다. 그래서 내부는 볼 수 없었는데, 최종적으로 2021년 2월에 완료될 예정이라고 합니다. 그래도, 빅히트 신사옥이 아니더라도, 용산의 야경은 충분히 멋진 것 같아요!

Big Hit Entertainment Co., Ltd. (Korean: 빅히트 엔터테인먼트) is a South Korean entertainment company established in 2005 by Bang Si-hyuk. It currently manages soloist Lee Hyun and idol groups BTS and TXT. The company has multiple subsidiaries, including Source Music, and is the largest shareholder in Pledis Entertainment.
Big Hit Entertainment was founded on February 1, 2005, and signed the vocal trio 8Eight in 2007. In 2010, Big Hit Entertainment and JYP Entertainment signed a joint management contract over the boy group 2AM. That year, Bang Si-hyuk signed RM as the first member of BTS and launched nationwide auditions to recruit the other members of the group. BTS made their debut under Big Hit on June 13, 2013.
In 2012, the company signed Lim Jeong-hee,[ and the girl group GLAM was formed as a collaboration with Source Music. They were active until 2014, when they disbanded due to a controversy over one of the members, Kim Da-hee, who was sentenced to prison following accusations of blackmailing actor Lee Byung-hun.
Following the end of the joint contract between Big Hit and JYP Entertainment in April 2014, three of the 2AM members returned to JYP, while Lee Chang-min stayed with Big Hit in order to continue with his solo career and as part of the duo Homme. The year also saw the disbandment of 8Eight after Baek Chan and Joo Hee’s contracts with Big Hit ended.
In May 2015, Lim Jeong-hee parted ways with the agency, following the expiration of her three-year contract,[11] and Signal Entertainment Group, a KOSDAQ-listed company specializing in artist management and television production, acquired Big Hit through a KRW ₩6 billion convertible bond.[ In early 2017, Big Hit ended their stake relationship with Signal Entertainment Group, which made a full settlement of the bonds.
In February 2018, Homme disbanded after member Changmin’s contract came to an end. He left the company to start his own agency, while Lee Hyun continued on as a solo artist.[18] In August, Big Hit Entertainment and CJ E&M released information stating plans to create a joint company. Filed under the name Belift, the company will reportedly be split 52% to CJ E&M, and 48% to Big Hit. It is set to debut a group in 2020. Later that year in October, BTS renewed and extended their contract with the agency for seven more years. Big Hit was voted best investment company of the year at the 2018 Korea VC Awards.
In March 2019, male group Tomorrow X Together (TXT) made their debut under Big Hit. Former CBO Lenzo Yoon was also appointed co-CEO with Bang Si-hyuk, focusing on the business components of the company while Bang will focus on creative production. In July 2019, the agency acquired Source Music, and in August, the video game firm Superb. Thanks to two apps developed by its subsidiary benX, Weverse and Weverse Shop (formerly known as Weply prior to March 9, 2020), Fast Company chose Big Hit as the fourth most innovative company of 2020 worldwide.
In May 2020, Big Hit became the majority shareholder of Pledis Entertainment. Big Hit announced that the record label would retain its independence, but its artists (which include boy bands NU’EST and Seventeen) would be more widely promoted outside of South Korea.
