History
Management SOOP was founded on April 19, 2011 by Kim Jang-kyun, who formerly worked for SidusHQ and Network of Asia (N.O.A) Entertainment (now Fantagio).[citation needed]
Gong Yoo, Lim Soo-jeong, Gong Hyo-jin, and Jung Il-woo left NOA Entertainment at the end of April and move to the new company SOOP. It had been 2 years and 6 months since they started working at NOA in October 2008.[1]
On June 27, 2018, Kakao M (now Kakao Entertainment) shared an update following reports that it was in talks to acquire entertainment agencies and created partnerships with three actor management agencies BH Entertainment, J.Wide Company, Management SOOP, and Korea’s leading advertisement model casting agency Ready Entertainment in order to globalize its content.[2][3]
