Actresses Seolhyun and Jung So Min have officially concluded their contracts with the management agency IEUM HASHTAG, bringing their time with the company to an end.
On October 24, IEUM HASHTAG released an official statement announcing that both actresses’ exclusive contracts had expired. The agency expressed appreciation for the years they spent working together and wished them success in their future activities.
The company shared the following message:
The exclusive contracts of actress Kim Seolhyun and actress Jung So Min, who have been with us for a long time, have come to an end. We hope their future days are filled with even more growth and happiness. Please continue to support and love the two actresses as they continue to shine in their respective place.
Seolhyun first rose to fame after debuting in 2012 as a member of the K-pop girl group AOA. Over the years, she gradually expanded her career into acting and established herself as a recognizable face in Korean dramas.
She has appeared in several notable projects, including Awaken, The Killer’s Shopping List, and Summer Strike. Through these roles, she demonstrated her ability to take on diverse characters while steadily building her acting portfolio.
Following the end of her contract with IEUM HASHTAG, Seolhyun is expected to explore new opportunities as she continues her acting career. Reports have suggested that she may be considering signing with a new agency, though no official confirmation regarding her next management company has been announced yet.
Jung So Min, who made her acting debut in 2010, has also developed a strong reputation in the Korean entertainment industry. She is widely known for her performances in popular dramas such as Because This Is My First Life, The Smile Has Left Your Eyes, Monthly Magazine Home, and Alchemy of Souls. Her ability to portray emotionally nuanced characters has earned her praise from viewers and critics alike.
At the time the announcement was made, Jung So Min was continuing her activities as an actress and maintaining a steady presence in the drama industry. Her departure from IEUM HASHTAG has sparked interest among fans regarding which agency she may join next.
IEUM HASHTAG, a relatively newer management company in the Korean entertainment industry, has represented several actors since its establishment. With Seolhyun and Jung So Min now moving on, the agency’s lineup will continue to evolve.
Although their contracts have ended, the agency conveyed its sincere support for both actresses as they begin the next chapter of their careers. Fans are now looking forward to seeing what projects and opportunities lie ahead for the two stars.
