New Future is a boy band that was formed by former trainees that were kicked out by various entertainment companies after being judged “unfit” to keep training. After meeting each other on internet forums, five boys decided to create New Future with the intention of making the world know how talented they actually are.

They began releasing their music on youtube and soundcloud on summer 2017, gaining a small, yet loyal, fanbase. They were casted by Nightfall Records in early 2018 and oficially debuted on september 13 of the same year. After signing a contract with a company and beggining to promote on music shows, New Future’s fame skyrocketed all over the world due to their catchy sound and alluring members. They got their first win on february 22, 2019 with the title track “Love Me Till The Day I Die”, since then consolidating themselves in the industry as one of its top acts.

On september, 2019; a few days before the band’s first debut anniversary, Nightfall records announced that New Future decided to withdraw from the company due to creative differences. Only a week later, it was announced that New Future had signed a contract with LUMIÉRE Entertainment to further their activities as artists.

Currently, New Future is still under Lumiére and are regularly releasing music.

cw: mentions of suicide.

Debuting under JYP Entertainment in October 7, 2011, Prism was met with instant success and likeness from netizens, their first single “Hurt Locker” went viral in South Korea and topped the charts for weeks, maintaining JYP’s reputation of successful girl groups. On their first year as rookies, Prism built an faithful fanbase that made sure all of their albums would gain huge traction.

The group would have their first controversy in 2012, when member Valerie was accused by various sources of being “hard to work with” and overall a extremely rude and demanding person. Such rumor wasn’t confirmed or denied, but Valerie posted a letter apologizing for any hurt she may have caused to the staff. This situation made Prism be badly seen by many netizens, but it was soon proved that it did nothing to affect the group’s success as their next comeback “Someone Like U”, is one of their most triumphant eras until this day.

Everything changed when Prism was struck with tragedy when member Sohee comitted suicide in 2013, leaving no suicide letter at all. The news spread all over the country and her memorial was transmitted on television, Prism hosted a memorial concert to their member and announced their hiatus soon after.

This hiatus would last until 2015, when Prism came back with the single album “Mysterious”, the music video was low budget for a big three group and the song was not promoted in music shows, it was pretty clear that JYP wasn’t much interested in investing on the group anymore.

With the founding of Lumiére Entertainment on 2016, with the CEO being Sohee’s older brother, all of the Prism members ended their exclusive contracts with JYP and signed to the company together. Although they are focusing more on solo schedules, they have at least one comeback a year and are currently active.
