Lee Won-min introduces Youth Sphere as his second team and begins album preparations.
They aim for a comeback in the first half of the year, looking to strengthen engagement with fans.
The group Youth Sphere has announced a new beginning in partnership with MW Entertainment. On January 7, Lee Won-min, the founder of MW Entertainment known for discovering groups like B1A4 and Oh My Girl, officially launched the company. Following his departure from RBW, the major shareholder of the former WM Entertainment, Lee is set to expand his musical vision in a new office.
Notably, Youth Sphere is the team Lee has introduced roughly a decade after Oh My Girl, having successfully transferred the exclusive contract and trademark rights from RBW. The group aims for a comeback in the first half of the year and is in full preparation for their album.
Lee expressed, "With the insights and expertise gained over the last 30 years, we are looking to produce K-POP stars who can lead a new trend," conveying optimism to fans.
The launch of Youth Sphere marks a significant event in the K-POP industry, especially considering it is Lee Won-min's first team since Oh My Girl roughly a decade ago. Through this partnership, Youth Sphere is set to inject new and fresh energy into the K-POP scene, which could foster positive engagement with audiences.
Moreover, the fact that Youth Sphere has established a solid foundation through its agreements with RBW increases anticipation for their future album releases and activities. Fans are looking forward to the team's musical direction and individuality, confident that Lee's wealth of experience will greatly assist in their growth.
Just as K-POP cultural elements like kimchi ramen capture public attention, Youth Sphere's new beginning suggests the emergence of fresh content aimed at a global fandom. There is high expectation for what unique musical colors Youth Sphere will craft, drawing from past successes.
