 방탄소년단이 빅히트 뮤직과 전원 재계약을 체결할 예정이다.

 

20일 하이브는 빅히트 뮤직이 2025년 이후에도 방탄소년단과 함께한다라며 이번 이사회 결의를 기반으로 방탄소년단 멤버 전원과 순차적으로 계약을 체결한다라고 소식을 전했다.

 

방탄소년단은 지난 20136월 하이브의 전신인 빅히트 엔터테인먼트에서 데뷔해 올해 데뷔 10주년을 맞았다.

 

지난 2018년에는 7년 전속계약 기간을 다 채우기 전 재계약을 맺었으며, 이번에도 멤버 전원이 두 번째 재계약을 맺으면서 멤버들의 군복무가 모두 끝나는 2025년 이후에도 함께 팀 활동을 이어 나갈 수 있게 됐다.

 

멤버들은 지난해 6월부터 군복무를 이유로 단체 활동을 중단하고 개인 활동을 펼치고 있다. 이후 발매된 솔로 음반들 역시 빌보드 및 글로벌 차트를 석권하며 변함없는 인기를 입증했다.

 

빅히트 뮤직은 진과 제이홉 등 일부 멤버의 병역 이행 상황을 고려해 개별적·순차적으로 계약을 체결하겠다는 입장이다. 멤버들은 2025년 완전체 활동 재개를 원하고 있는 것으로 알려졌다.

 

하이브는 재계약 체결을 계기로 2025년으로 희망하고 있는 방탄소년단의 완전체 활동을 함께할 수 있게 됐다라며 하이브와 빅히트 뮤직은 방탄소년단의 위상이 더욱 강화될 수 있도록 가능한 모든 지원을 다 할 것이라고 전했다.

 

한편 빅히트 뮤직은 다시금 함께하게 된 방탄소년단과 팬덤 아미(ARMY)에 대한 감사의 의미로 유니세프한국위원회에 10억원을 기부하기로 했다. 이는 201711월 방탄소년단과 함께 시작한 LOVE MYSELF 캠페인을 통해 전달된다.

Japan Meteorological Agency lists Dokdo as Japanese territory on weather map for Typhoon No. 7 Lan

▲일본 기상청에 표기된 독도. 사진제공=서경덕 교수 The Japan Meteorological Agency has sparked controversy for labeling Dokdo as Japanese territory on a weather map of Typhoon No. 7. On the 16th, Seo Kyung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, sent a protest email to the Japan Meteorological Agency through social networking services (SNS), demanding that the agency correct its mistake of labeling Dokdo as Japanese land. "The Japan Meteorological Agency has always labeled Dokdo as '竹島' (Takeshima), and we have been protesting against this for three years. The biggest problem is that many Japanese netizens visit the Japan Meteorological Agency's website during typhoon and tsunami warnings, which can create a false perception of Dokdo," he said. "In this protest email, we said, 'This is a clear territorial provocation. Dokdo is an undisputed territory of the Republic of Korea under historical, geographical, and international law." Professor Seo said that not o...

The Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) announced on Friday that it had received a request from the MLB office to check the identities of Lee Jeong-hoo and Ko Woo-seok the day before, and that the players were informed today that they belong to Kiwoom and LG, respectively. A background check request from the MLB office is the first step for an MLB club to sign a player. The two players have played at least seven regular seasons, ending this season, and are eligible to move to overseas leagues through the posting system with the consent of their clubs. Lee previously announced his intention to play in the major leagues after this season. His team, Kiwoom, accepted. The local media is also showing high interest in their signing. On the 10th, ESPN, an American sports channel, ranked L...

'Gangnam-daero 3 hamburgers'...'juicy' makes the wait worth it Five Guys

   Customers wait in line to place orders at a Five Guys store on Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul, on Nov. 28. (Reporter Koo Ye-ji sunrise@) Five Guys, one of America's top three burgers, has landed in Korea, sparking a burger war on Gangnam-daero in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Five Guys is fighting for 'American taste', Shake Shack for localization, and Superduper for fresh meat. At 9:30 a.m. on the 28th, an hour and a half before the store opened, there were already 117 teams lined up out front. With the introduction of tabling (a remote queuing application), there were no long lines like on the first day. After a long wait, we were able to enter the store at 12:10pm. On the 27th, the second day of opening, the line started at 11:44am and I entered the store at 2:54pm. I ordered a burger from Five Guys in Korea and compared it to the Five Guys burger, Shake Shack, and Superduper signature items I tried in New York City in January. The Five Guys burger comes with eight veggies, incl...
