Former PRISTIN Member Nayoung Signs With New Agency

Nayoung, formerly a member of I.O.I and PRISTIN, has signed with a new agency.

On August 22, Sublime Artist Agency announced that Nayoung had signed an exclusive contract with them. They stated, “We recognize the potential of Im Nayoung and will do our best so that she can shine in whatever field she chooses.”

Reports mention that Nayoung will be active in a variety of fields, including acting and choreography production.

Nayoung left her former agency, Pledis Entertainment, after PRISTIN disbanded earlier this year. Sublime Artist Agency currently houses actress Kim Hee Jung and T-ara’s Hyomin, among others.

Emanresu Comment:

Ohhhhh..... I'm so glad Nayoung has found a new home. I don't know how many threads I've made to the effect of "If Nayoung doesn't continue in entertainment I'm gonna quit". Lol. She is my 3rd favorite idol behind only Tzuyu and Yoona.

It sounds like she will be transitioning to a career as an actress and perhaps work as a choreographer. So this seems to indicate she will probably no longer be pursuing a career as a a kpop idol. And to be honest, that saddens me, as I love her as an idol. I wish she could have found a group or something to be in.

But, I am happy if she is happy and just want her to pursue whatever fulfills her.

What keeps my spirits high is the prospect of seeing her in kdramas! That's my other Korean love. So I can't wait to see where that goes! She's so pretty and I think she'd be wonderful in dramas! My dream is for her to become a lead!!!!! AHHHHHHH!

And maybe she'll become a famous choreographer for future idol groups!

I love her and am glad she's found her next thing in life! Support her Nayoung Stans!

News about Nayoung!

I was hoping she would sign under Mystic or some agency that's planning on debuting a girl group.

Yes I was hoping she'd find a new group but it sounds like she's moving to acting and behind the scenes duties rather than kpop idol work.

Good for her

 

[RandAlThor]

Glad she is signed but sad its not for something i will likely see much of :(

This may be better for her career long term.

I think it would have been hard to transition to a new group of a decent caliber at her age. And she may have had to go with a non ideal group.

Perhaps acting will allow her more security long term.

I'm sad that she most likely won't be performing though.

You may have to get into kdramas my man! Haha.

If Yoona , Sooyoung, Eunji, Sejeong and Jessica ect did not get me to watch one the odds are not good. :)

Hopefully this company will treat her much better

 

[Emanresu]

Well hold on.

Allkpop reported slightly different.

They included "singing" in the list of things she'd be pursuing.

I'm inclined to trust Soompi's translation over Allkpop but I don't know the source Korean.

God I hope it's still singing too!

Hyomin(tara) is signed there. I am just not sure about her as a soloist..

Yea I know

She's a much better fit for group material.

I don't know how a solo effort would play.

It's not ideal. But I'll take whatever I can get.

I was kinda kidding here but the more i think about it.. That would have worked, style wise she could have been a different tone rapper than Mina or Sally.
She is a good friend to 3 maybe 4 of the girls already. She just has to chill and do her job none of that crushing leader pressure.

The only real problem is they are not super successful yet.

Thank the gods!

I was going to have to go become a monk on a mountain somewhere if she didn't continue!

Good for her. Even if I dont’ see her going solo I would like to see her release songs as I barely watch dramas.
