KPlus (Korean: 케이플러스) is a South Korean model and actors management company established by fashion model-turned-CEO Go Eun-kyung in 2008.
History
K-Plus was founded by former model Go Eun-kyung in 2008 to train future models and fashion industry professionals.[1] In February 2014, K-Plus signed a contract for strategic partnership and share investment with talent agency YG Entertainment and finalised the merger with a new name called "YG KPLUS" in September.[2] Go's former protege model-turned-actor Cha Seung-won would be training K-Plus models to become future actors.[3]
In September 2014, top model Kang Seung-hyun signed a contract with YGKPlus.[4]
In June 2017, for the first time in Vietnam's Next Top Model, starting from All-stars' cycle onwards, the winner will receive this contract for him/her to include in the roster list of models.
In May 2022, Green Snake Media acquired 50% of the company’s shares.[5][6][7] The company name later changes to KPLUS with dropping the YG brand.[citation needed]
