Sungmin of Super Junior joined trot music agency Totalset just one day after his departure from longtime label SM Entertainment was announced.
On Thursday, Totalset revealed that it had come to terms with the veteran K-pop singer.
“We have signed an exclusive contract with Sungmin. We plan to fully support him so that he can continue to receive great love from the public and actively promote as a trot singer,” the company said, in a statement.
Sungmin first dipped a toe into the trot scene in 2022 through TV Chosun’s second season of its competition “Mr. Trot.” He released his trot debut single “Lovesick” last year, showcasing a passionate side to his performance style. Most recently, he returned with the new single “Yo. Yo. Yo.” establishing himself as a full-fledged trot artist.
“I truly love the genre of trot and I’m happy to have found a reliable agency where I can learn and grow,” Sungmin said in a statement. “I ask for your support and interest as I continue to deliver joyful energy through my trot music.”
Meanwhile, SM Entertainment expressed its gratitude to Sungmin for his time with the company.
“We thank Sungmin for being with us for over 20 years — from his trainee days to his time as an artist,” SM Entertainment said in a statement, Wednesday. “We will continue to support his musical career and new journey.”
