Shin Hyung-kwan, head of CJ ENM's music content business division, said at the CJ ENM Music Media Lounge 'Mext: Worlds of Mnet Sins 2025' held in Cheongdam, Seoul on the 15th that "We will launch a new global artist label."
Starting with Mnet, a music channel that means 'Music Network' in 1995, it has introduced original programs based on the novelty of illuminating various music genres and breaking prejudice for 30 years until 2025. CJ ENM celebrates its 30th anniversary this year on Mnet and is expected to make a full-fledged leap into a global music IP powerhouse in 2025.
On this day, CJ ENM held a media lounge to explain the future of CJ ENM's music business, which will expand globally, including Mnet's Next Chapter, which will further evolve under the slogan of 'K-pop Generation Mnet', as well as music labels and K-pop platform Mnet Plus.
CJ ENM's music content division head Shin Hyung-kwan and Mnet Plus division head Kim Ji-won were presenters to share CJ ENM's global music business strategy and Mnet Plus vision.
Director Shin said "I'm going to explain the future of Mnet" and "I'll tell you three key businesses. It is a global multi-label, a global production studio, and a global platform."
First, Director Shin revealed the 'Global Label Establishment Plan'. K-pop artists who entered the world stage through Wake One and Raphone Entertainment successfully settled the K-pop development system in Japan, and a new global artist label will be launched within this year.
Director Shin said "We will launch a new global artist label, and I think we can talk about more details during the first half of the year. I hope you look forward to the leap forward of the new CJ ENM.
