TOP Media (Korean: 티오피미디어),(also known as T.O.P Media) is a South Korean company, founded by Shinhwa, Andy, handling the management of several artists. TOP Media usually works with Kakao Entertainment for distribution of its musical releases.[2]

History[]

TOP Media was founded as ND Entertainment (New Dream Entertainment) by Andy and his former long-time manager at SM Entertainment, Lee Jae-hong, in 2005. In 2009, the company debuted Jumper, a male pop duo, which released two singles, "Yes!" and "Dazzling" (Korean: 눈이부셔). Jumper, however, disbanded soon after the release of their second single. A year later, Teen Top[4] debuted, followed by 100%[5] in 2012 and UP10TION in 2015.[6] Their newest boy group, MCND, debuted on February 27, 2020 with the EP Into the Ice Age. On October 9, 2021, 100% disbanded after all remaining members' contracts were expired and left the company.[7]
