Agency
Evermore Entertainment
Evermore Entertainment (에버모어 엔터테인먼트), also known as Evermore Music, is a South Korean record label and entertainment agency founded in July 2011. Based in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, the company operates across music production, talent management, and content development, with a roster spanning singer-songwriters, vocalists, and group acts across multiple genres.
The label gained significant industry attention in May 2022 when Kim Jong Hyeon, known as JR and the former leader of NU'EST under Pledis Entertainment, signed with the company following NU'EST's disbandment. He subsequently debuted as a soloist in 2022 with the mini album Meridiem, establishing Evermore as a credible home for post-major-label talent. The label also manages vocalist Lee Sunwoo, who competed on Universe Ticket and Girls Planet 999, and Nam Yuju, a former I-LAND 2 contestant.
On the group side, Evermore houses indie rock act Bursters, long-running vocal group CATCH THE YOUNG, and pre-debut girl group EVERMORE MUSE. The company's broader artist philosophy leans toward authenticity and longevity, prioritizing music that holds value across time over short-cycle idol promotion cycles. With its Gangnam base and a roster mix of former major-label alumni and emerging independent voices, Evermore sits at an interesting intersection of the Korean independent and mainstream music scenes.
