A Glimpse into Big Hit Music's Journey

Formerly known as Big Hit Entertainment, Big Hit Music traces its roots back to 2005 when it was founded by Bang Si-hyuk. Under the umbrella of Hybe Corporation since March 2021, the label boasts a roster including soloist Lee Hyun, and beloved boy groups BTS and Tomorrow X Together (TXT).

From the inception of 8Eight in 2007 to the groundbreaking debut of BTS in 2013, Big Hit Music has continuously shaped the K-pop landscape. The label's journey, marked by collaborations and launches, hasn't been without challenges, including the disbandment of groups like GLAM due to controversies.

Despite the hurdles, Big Hit Music persevered, nurturing talents like Lee Hyun and TXT. The label's evolution culminated in its rebranding as Hybe Corporation, with Big Hit Music emerging as its flagship label. This transformation reflects a commitment to innovation and growth, setting the stage for a new era of entertainment.

As the '2024 Big Hit Music Global Audition' unfolds, it symbolizes not just a search for new talent, but a celebration of diversity and creativity. With doors wide open and opportunities abound, the stage is set for the next generation of stars to shine.
