According to Amoeba Culture, she is the first solo female artist to sign with the company in its 11-year history. The record label has several leading Korean hip-hop artists including Dynamic Duo, Primary and Crush.
Park, 27, debuted in 2007 as a member of the now-defunct Wonder Girls. The group had several mega-hits during its run, arguably becoming the biggest name in K-pop at one point with songs like “Tell me,” “So Hot” and “Nobody.”
Park launched her solo career in 2014 with the EP “Me?” released in 2014 by her then-agency JYP Entertainment.
