Moon Jellyfish 23,232 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 2AM's contract with Big Hit Entertainment is nearing its expiration date and it turns out Jo Kwon, Seulong, and Jinwoon have decided to return to JYP Entertainment while Changmin will remain with Big Hit Entertainment. SEE ALSO: [Drama Review] 'Emergency Couple' - Episode 20 According to multiple music insiders in an exclusive by MyDaily, 2AM's contract with Big Hit Entertainment expires at the end of this month. An insider stated, "Even after his contract expires late-April, Changmin will continue as an artist under Big Hit Entertainment while the other three members will transfer their management from Big Hit Entertainment to JYP Entertainment. For their Japanese activities and concerts, Big Hit Entertainment will continue to take charge of that area of business." A Big Hit Entertainment rep confirmed to Xports News on the 9th, "Jo Kwon, Jinwoon, and Seulong will move to JYP Entertainment starting today... Since Changmin has schedules for 'Shootdori 6' left under Big Hit Entertainment, he has decided to stay. Although there has been no specific contract made, he will carry out his activities for this year under Big Hit Entertainment." Since JYP and Big Hit Entertainment have been co-managing 2AM together since 2010, fans can rest assured that things will most likely continue as normal concerning 2AM's activities. Following the release of their third mini-album 'NOCTURNE' last year, 2AM have been focusing on their individual activities including musicals, variety shows, and acting with Seulong starring in 'Hotel King' and Jinwoon taking on variety show 'SNS Expedition'.

Actually it was because Jinwoon was in a car accident. They had already pushed it back but they had a tour to do and just went ahead with the comeback without any promotions.

blapblapblap 124 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 The used to be so big, like 3 or 4 songs in top 10 at end of the year big. JYP and BigHit messed up big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryokonicheiress 5,833 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Ah so Changmin may still return to JYPE after his schedule clears. I was so worried about how this would all work out but I have faith. And actually 2AM had one of JYP'S best digital releases last year with One Spring Day. They're holding their own musically, through endorsements, acting, OSTs, varieties and touring. Still doing better than most kpop groups overall. With just their vocal talent alone, they'll have places in the industry for a long long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auroras 4,218 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 The title seriously scared me So it seems that Changmin will continue to be co-managed by Big Hit and JYPE this year, while the other 3 will be under JYPE exclusively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
