Korean actress Jun Ji-hyun is set to leave her management agency Ieum Hashtag after three years, stirring anticipation in the entertainment industry as she prepares to enter the free-agent market.
“Jun Ji-hyun’s contract expires early next month, and both sides have agreed not to renew,” an official from Ieum Hashtag said on Tuesday.
Jun joined Ieum Hashtag in 2022. The agency was founded by the former CEO of Culture Depot, where Jun was previously managed for many years. Actress Kim So-hyun also recently parted ways with the company.
According to industry sources, Jun is currently considering offers from multiple agencies.

Her next project is the Disney+ series Tempest, set to premiere later this year.
In the drama, she plays Moon Ju, a diplomat and former UN ambassador who teams up with an untraceable special agent named San Ho (played by Kang Dong-won) to uncover the truth behind a massive conspiracy threatening the Korean peninsula. The cast also includes John Cho.
Jun made her debut as a magazine model in 1997 and rose to stardom through a series of hit films and dramas, including My Sassy Girl, Windstruck, The Thieves, My Love from the Star and Kingdom: Ashin of the North.
