PLEDIS Entertainment, the agency behind K-pop sensation SEVENTEEN, has revealed a change at the top!
The agency is welcoming the new CEO Kim Seon Yoo to steer future growth and success.
On November 1, the label released an official statement, stating, “Vice President Kim Yeon Soo has been appointed as the new CEO.”
The newly appointed CEO shared his feelings, saying, “We will prioritize artists and fans, and strive to provide content that can be sincerely enjoyed as original entertainment.”
Newly appointed CEO Kim brings over a decade of experience, having joined PLEDIS Entertainment in 2012. He oversaw SEVENTEEN’s debut and international expansion, particularly in Japan.
