When it comes to k-pop companies
I don't think anyone has the history that big HIT Entertainment has from near bankruptcy to disrupting the big three in
Kpop becoming one of the most innovative companies in the world
writing the new wave of kpop created by BTS with revenue soaring year after year and
Expanding their kpop empire faster than ever today. We're talking about the history and timeline of what groups or idols help them become successful
Spoiler its BTS, but will big hits major boom died out when BTS go to the military
Now before we get this started let me know down in the comments

Hey dole right after getting your fill here
Watch this podcast now big HIT Entertainment started back in
2005 created by bang shi Hyun who wasn't an artist like how some big kpop company started but rather he was a promising
Producer creating hits for the first generation kpop acts rain and g.od
Now it took a couple years to get started but big hits first group wasn't BTS
in fact
It was a rare co-ed group
called eight which debuted in
2007 and they had to play major catch up to SM Entertainment who already debuted k-pop groups in the first generation
Why did he Entertainment who was already on the rise with newly debuted?
BIGBANG and
JYP entertainment who debuted the
phenomenon solo artists rain years before the group 8 performed
Ok with skills to appear on some Korean TV shows but big hey entertainment was about to fall on some financial hard times
they were almost not making enough to keep functioning as
Company, they can't entertainment could have ended before it even began
But in 2010 with punky silk already known by geoip having worked with them before
Both big hit and jyp worked together to create a project that would later become 2 p.m
Who was managed by JYP and 2 a.m
Who was joint managed by bighead and JYP with the success of 8 and 2 a.m
big hit was able to keep their heads above water and start working on what would become
BTS by signing their first member the underground rapper RM
In 2012 big hit led another joint effort this time teaming up with source music
Debuting a girl group named glam potential was big for them as they were sliding into the newly created
genre girl crush or hip hop Elaine and kpop kind of like 21 and
4-minute at the time and finally the brainchild of bang she hug and big HIT Entertainment
BTS was ready after signing suga an up-and-coming producer. J-hope a popular street
dancer Jin an aspiring actor with standout visuals Tong GOG a young talent who was inspired to join after meeting our m/v a
boy from a small rural town
Suggested to audition an team in a traditionally trained dancer in contemporary dance who wanted to join big hit as a dance teacher
But would later lead him to join the group to complete this search
As we famously know BTS debuted in 2013 with no more dream sure
You're gonna get a couple people that said a new BTS was gonna be huge man. I just knew it
I knew it. I called it but like any new group from an up-and-coming company. It was a struggle from the start now
Let's check up on glam glam had lasted for only three years until the blackmail controversy led to their disbandment in 2015
Trying to bribe money out of famous actor Lee byung-hun with an incriminating video
but players would fall through leading to the member Dahee to receive a suspended sentence and
Glam was no more. This was one of big HIT Entertainment smells popular
mishaps in looking back now glam actually had potential to be a major player in
Kpop in this second generation and in 2015
Probably the biggest turning point for big HIT Entertainment as a company was the company single
Entertainment Corp and artists and management and TV production company found interest in the potential of big hits growth and
Bought them through a bond valued at six billion won or four point seven million dollars
Generating the influence and money big hit needed to get BTS a big boost to reach greater heights two years later in
2017 BTS released the most beautiful moment in life era which marked a new era for the group and
The company with hits like I need you run and of course the viral sensation dope
Hmm Noah
I'm tannin show me see I pinpoint this moment in BTS history as the moment
They started to take off they're reaching altitude and then they just die rocket in his face
This this was the moment and I'm actually gonna say that dope was this song
that did it for BTS it appealed more to a worldwide audience on the internet with
choreography and height to just get you up and
It's still about today
With that big explosion BTS made they were able to pay off that six billion won investment and
Retain all income from revenue big hit would make in
2017 fast forward within the same year to the moment where BTS had that major breakthrough
promoting DNA in America and winning for the first time at the Billboard Music Awards
VTS continued to follow the success with fake love idol and in 2018
Matias resigned for another seven years with big HIT Entertainment
until now four big HIT Entertainment
It was project a project to am glam and then boom
BTS took over but it's been six years since big hit has produced a new group. That was until 2019
With a new boy group tomorrow by together
TXT debuted in
2019 with crown with continuous promotions back-to-back giving these new boys the attention they needed from the Korean public since
BTS was the most talked about thing ever then in the same year big hit was making major moves by acquisition
And buying source music the label that created g'friend and added them to the big hint label as a subsidiary
Basically, meaning that big hit entertainment owns source music and kind of provides them with promotion purposes
Revenue, but the management that source music had for the groups like g'friend still remain nothing really changed that much
Also in 2019 big hit launched the worldwide auditions to create a new girl group
But this is still a joint effort between source music and big HIT Entertainment
Similar to what glam was and early 2020 this year
there was rumors of big hit acquiring Pledis entertainment yet another big kpop company the home to
SEVENTEEN and newest adding them as a subsidiary to big HIT Entertainment
But only later it was revealed that pledis as artist would be joining the weverse app
Now this Weverse app was created by big entertainment to provide original artists content a place for people to buy merchandise
Connect with their favorite artists for a price but using this happen a lot of other technology
Making entertainment was named the fourth most innovative company in the world in a report by Fast Company
they listed their top 50 companies of 2020 that are the most impactful on the culture and
Industry right there in fourth place behind snap
Microsoft
Tesla was big HIT Entertainment
How can big HIT Entertainment compete with the lights of Elon Musk and Bill Gates?
well
They are utilizing technology to their advantage and doing it by themselves
if you read a follow-up article by Fast Company
titled millions of BTS fans use these two apps to connect ad shop
No tech startups needed it goes on to explain that big hair entertainment funded their own
research and development of apps to better utilize
BTS popularity in order to gather new fans and continue to build that relationship that army and Beatty has had that is probably the strongest
Fandom out there while other entertainment companies would go to a app development company or somewhere else to create stuff for them
Bighit is taking it upon themselves. That is why they are the innovative companies in kpop
also in 2020 BTS came back with on and
continued to have a presence here in America getting invited to tons of talk shows and
Re-invited to tons of talk shows because as they know army will watch now we're caught up to today in 2020
but what is the future hold for BTS and big hair entertainment as
BTS will serve in the military as we know natural Korean born citizens men have to serve in the military
And that does include BTS, although there was some back-and-forth about them possibly being exempted
But BTS themselves said no worries will serve as you carry on tango XI of samhita
Pretty much I am dating
Johnny to him, so do ok on yoga
Tango tango girl haiku that I promise male or didn't see her
Ramita, Vicky entertainment has a couple options when it comes to sending BTS to the military
That will be the best outcome for the group
They could go one by one with the others remaining have their own solo activities
But that would be purgatory for Army instead
They would probably send them all together at the same time so that they can come back
Together at the same time the extent of the Korean military service used to be two years
But now it's kind of been cut down over time to one year and eight months. So really thinking about it
It's not that long BTS will serve and be back
faster than you can say bangtan sonyeondan
