Jellyfish Entertainment

Jellyfish Entertainment (젤리피쉬엔터테인먼트) is a South Korean entertainment agency and music label founded by composer and producer Hwang Se-jun in Seoul in 2007. The company manages a roster that spans K-pop groups, solo artists, and actors, with an emphasis on developing well-rounded performers capable of sustained careers. The label first established its reputation through VIXX, the six-member boy group who debuted in 2012 and became one of the defining groups of the early 2010s K-pop wave. Their concept-driven approach, built around theatrical storytelling and striking visuals, set a template for what Jellyfish acts would become known for. In January 2019, Jellyfish launched VERIVERY, a seven-member group that debuted with the mini album Veri-Us. VERIVERY distinguished themselves by self-producing much of their own material, with member Minchan directing and editing their music videos. The group earned their first music show win in three years with Red (Beggin') from their 2025 single album Lost and Found. The company expanded in 2023 with the debut of EVNNE and in 2024 with DIRTY SHOE and PENTACLE. Jellyfish also develops solo careers: VERIVERY member Kangmin released his debut solo single album Free Falling in March 2026. In January 2025, the company unveiled a new logo, updating its visual identity for the first time in nearly two decades. The four-circle motif represents fans, artists, creativity, and music.
