By KTimes

Singer Younha has renewed her contract with C9 Entertainment, extending their 12-year partnership, the agency announced on Friday.

“We are delighted to continue our relationship with Younha and plan to provide full support for her diverse activities moving forward,” C9 Entertainment said in a statement. Younha first joined the agency in 2012, building a strong foundation of trust throughout their partnership.

Last year, marking the 20th anniversary of her debut, Younha released her seventh studio album “Growth Theory” and its repackage, “Growth Theory: Final Edition,” reaffirming her status as a unique singer-songwriter with distinctive vocals and musical identity.

She also successfully held 20 concerts, including her national tour “Twenty,” the small-theater series “Younha: A Shining Summer,” and her end-of-year concert “Growth Theory.” Additionally, she marked the milestone with exhibitions and various other events, creating meaningful connections with her fans.

Younha has solidified her influence in the K-pop industry, demonstrated by her third consecutive win in the female vocalist category at the 2024 Brand of the Year Awards and the enduring success of her hit song “Event Horizon,” which has appeared on Melon’s annual chart for three consecutive years.

As her first major activity of the new year, Younha will host an encore concert, “Growth Theory: Final Edition,” at KSPO Dome in Seoul from Feb. 14 to 16.
