About JYP Entertainment

JYP Entertainment was founded in 1997 by K-pop legend Park Jin-young (J.Y. Park) - a top songwriter and producer who remains hands-on with the label's creative direction. JYP is celebrated for its artist-friendly culture that emphasizes personality and storytelling alongside musical polish. The company has a remarkable track record of international crossover success: Wonder Girls (first K-pop act on Billboard Hot 100), TWICE's pan-Asian dominance, GOT7's global fanbase, and Stray Kids' self-producing model. JYP has also cultivated Korea's acting talent alongside its musical roster.
