Article: Shin Se Kyung is leaving IU’s agency

Source: Insight via Instagram

[+109] Not like IU’s the CEO, why is it being called IU’s agency in the news??

[+51] I think because her agency was founded by IU’s manager and the only two stars in it are IU and Shin Se Kyung so

[+52] Shin Se Kyung could probably make a living just posting YouTube vlogs without any other acting activities ㅎ

[+39] They didn’t keep her active enough. She’s had maybe one real project, nothing else. It’s not like she’s bad either, but she’s also never been exceptional in any of her roles so the agency probably thought they were managing her to the best of their ability, which wasn’t up to par with what Shin Se Kyung wanted for herself

[+7] She seems like a loyal actress so it makes you wonder why her agency didn’t keep her active enough. I remember IU saying she didn’t even know she got offers for ‘Hotel Del Luna’ and ‘Hyori’s Homestay’ because her agency never told her. She found out through others telling her. Seems like an agency that is just trying to coast on the names of their stars without having to put any work in themselves. I hope Shin Se Kyung transfers to an agency that managers actors!

[+12] EDAM only ever had IU, Shin Se Kyung, and WOODZ, so I guess they’re now down to two

[+0] Probably a big decision for her… time keeps passing and yet she’s not getting cast in anything…! This agency seems like the type where you have to go out and find your own food if you want to feed yourself 😂

[+0] For an agency that only has two real artists, Shin Se Kyung leaving is probably going to be a big deal for them ㅠ
