Loona's Yeojin, Gowon, Hyeju sign with CTDENM

Gowon, Yeojin and Hyeju [BLOCKBERRY CREATIVE]

Yeojin, Gowon and Hyeju from girl group Loona signed with a new agency, CTDENM.

“The company signed with Yeojin, Gowon and Hyeju, originally from the [girl] group Loona. We thank the three members who chose to accompany CTDENM,” the agency said in a statement on Wednesday.

Hyeju, whose real name is Son Hye-ju, went by her stage name Olivia Hye in Loona.

Two other members from Loona, Hyunjin and ViVi also signed with CTDENM in early June.

“CTDENM promises to the fans to do the utmost so Yeojiin, Gowon and Hyeju can bloom their charm and talent,” the agency added.

CTDENM was established by Eric Yun, a former executive at BlockBerry Creative, Loona’s original agency. All 12 members of the group, starting with Chuu in 2022, had their exclusive contracts suspended with the agency, citing unfair contract terms.

This makes 11 out of the original 12 members of Loona signing with a new agency. Chuu signed with newborn agency ATRP in April, followed by Heejin, Kim Lip, Jinsoul, Choerry and Haseul signing with Modhaus, an agency founded by Jaden Jeong, who designed Loona’s fictional universe. Yves, whose real name is Ha Soo-young, is independent as of Thursday.
