Singer Kim Yong-bin will continue his harmonious journey based on the deep trust he shares with his current agency, Onesta Company.
Onesta Company announced on the 19th, "Kim Yong-bin has politely declined exceptional recruitment offers from numerous major agencies and decided to remain with his current agency, Onesta Company (CEO Jang Dong-il, hereinafter referred to as Onesta)."
After winning the title of Jin (the highest rank) in TV CHOSUN's 'Mr. Trot 3,' Kim Yong-bin has emerged as the top choice for various variety programs and major stage bookings, establishing himself as the ultimate 'blue chip' in the music industry. In particular, he has demonstrated overwhelming buzz by achieving a four-crown sweep at the '2026 K-Trot Grand Awards,' among other accomplishments, and has received exclusive contract offers accompanied by substantial signing bonuses from multiple large management firms.
Kim Yong-bin, who debuted at the young age of 7 and was known as a 'Trot prodigy,' had to endure a long hiatus of no less than seven years due to a harsh voice change period and panic disorder. During those pitch-black days when no one paid attention to him, it was his current agency, Onesta, that believed in his potential to the end, stood by his side as a shield, and laid the foundation for his comeback.
Kim Yong-bin has not forgotten his gratitude toward the agency that reached out to help him during his most difficult times. He has decided to share his current success, which is at its peak, with his agency, setting a heartwarming example in the entertainment industry.
Onesta, in turn, has completed all preparations to repay Kim Yong-bin's steadfast trust. The Onesta side emphasized, "Our company will spare no effort in providing systematic and full-scale support to help him leap forward as an even greater artist. This includes building a dedicated production system that will further highlight his unique musical color, as well as music activities spanning not only Trot but various genres, and enabling him to fully unleash his capabilities across multiple fields such as broadcasting and performances."
