Oh my lord... :wub: button your shirt up! :D

I actually don't get it. What's with putting up your agency? Was it like in the KBS drama The Producers? There, IU's character got dropped by her agency so she started a one-man agency. Just her and the driver-road manager. What's the difference? 

And saw these

No one got dropped by the agency. Contracts with agencies aren't indefinite. They are for a specific period of time (such as three years). When the contract ends, the actor can decide whether to re-sign for another term, or go elsewhere. Jongsuk did three years with YG and then decided he wanted to open his own agency. He made a short-term agreement to partnership with YNK (using them as a mentor, I assume) while he got his own agency up and running. Now it is running independently, and meanwhile his short term contract with YNK is over. There is nothing weird about it at all (except for maybe the way tabloids are trying to report it?). He went from being an actor wholly dependent on an agency, to being an actor who owns an agency. Other agencies are actor-owned as well. (BH Entertainment, for one example). Opening his own agency and signing clients should actually be a yay, Jongsuk! moment, not the whisper-whisper-something's-wrong rumor these tabloids are trying to invent.

I quite remember few parts of The Producers I can't remember exactly what happened to the IU's character and am just curious about the one-man agency I encountered there. I also remember On Air, there are few dramas tackling about management agencies. Anyway, hope that his agency does well.

I hope it does well, too. They are already fully staffed (at least one person followed him over from YNK to work at his agency), and have signed their first client. The guy's an actor, but he has a business head, too. He's had a couple of clothing lines and his cafe finished its first year in the black (NOT normal for a startup company). I think it will do well.

Frozi, what does it mean "finished its first year in the black"?

I can't remember where I read it now, but if I recall correctly, they were making a profit. (Which is written in black, as opposed to not breaking even, which would put them "in the red.") I am umm...not an expert in business, but from what I understand, most startup businesses lose money before they make it. It might take a couple years to start making a profit. He started it for fun, to fulfill a dream, but it turns out it's doing well. (Or was the last time I read about it.) 

 

And speaking of business, today without warning, Drama Fever shut down. They were acquired by Warner Brothers/ATT, who decided they didn't want to spend the money on it, and without warning, just completely stopped streaming dramas. Which is super annoying if you were in the middle of one and Viki doesn't carry it. (I know, Soompi is owned by Viki, but for licensing, they were often complementary instead of competing, with licensing going back and forth between the two for different shows.) They had exclusive rights to stream Goblin and Terius Behind Me, for example, and now...nothing. Supposedly it got expensive, but the subscription price was pretty cheap, and I think people would rather pay a little more to keep the service than just dump it altogether.

 

I think Viki carries most of JS's shows. Let's hope they continue to do so. (But--sniff--DF was the only one who had High Kick.)

 

(Sorry, I know we are worldwide here, and I don't know how many people it affects. But it's quite sad.)
