About Bighit:
global audition for Bighit Entertainment’s new Boyband is starting from today.
Established in 2005 by Bang Si-hyuk, Big Hit Music . In March 2021, it underwent a rebranding and restructuring to become an independent label under Hybe Corporation (previously known as Big Hit Entertainment Co., Ltd.).
As of right now, soloist Lee Hyun as well as the boy groups BTS and Tomorrow X Together are signed to the label. In the past, it co-managed Glam, 8Eight, 2AM, and soloist Lim Jeong-hee.
While everyone talks about BTS’s success in the music industry, many people overlook the fact that those successes were not achieved solely by BTS.
In fact, a lot of people tend to forget that success doesn’t walk towards you, you need to cross a barrier of hardships and struggles and achieve them. Bighit Entertainment have faced almost half of the hardships for BTS.
Today,Not only has Bangtan Seonyondan expanded outside of South Korea, but their once-small business has also seen success along the way. Half of the shares of Bighit is now owned by BTS and it has changed significantly. Now the company is known as HYBE Corporation.
It has grown internationally and is now among South Korea’s most significant entertainment businesses.BigHit initially concentrated on managing teams that were already well-known (like 8Eight) or teams that were managed in tandem with other businesses (like 2AM).
The company’s endeavour with BTS:
Five years after the company was founded, in 2010, they signed BTS’s first member, leader RM.BTS was BigHit Entertainment’s lone debut group when they made their debut in 2013.
Let us not forget about Lee Hyun. Originally, Lee Hyun was a member of the group 8Eight. The duo Homme was formed in 2010 when Lee Hyun and Lee Chang-min from 2AM teamed up. Homme dissolved in 2018, and 8Eight ended in dissolution in 2014. Lee Hyun is still a soloist with BigHit today in spite of this
.2019 saw the official launch of BigHit Entertainment’s second and new boy group, Tomorrow X Together (TXT). From this point on, the business grew extremely quickly.
They began buying up other labels and big businesses in order to grow both inside and outside of South Korea. Ultimately, this resulted in their 2021 rebranding as HYBE Corporation.
Though they were not initially part of the Big 3 Korean entertainment companies, HYBE has now surpassed some of their earnings—in 2021, HYBE exceeded 1.26 trillion Korean Won (just over $1 billion USD).
BigHit Entertainment, which preceded Bangtan Boys, came close to bankruptcy in 2007. BigHit was struggling financially after only two years of operation. The company nearly failed. Fortunately, they got through it.
BigHit occupied a small building in Seoul when Bangtan Boys signed on as trainees. BigHit occupied a few floors of the building, with other businesses occupying the remaining levels.

Although it is regarded as vandalism, fans have written messages on the building’s walls.When the business began to see success in 2017, they upgraded to a new facility.
This building was still rather small, even though it was unquestionably better than their previous one. BigHit relocated to the MDM Tower in 2018.
