Hot take
BigHit Music, now a flagship label under the HYBE Corporation umbrella, has cemented its reputation as the launchpad for K-pop powerhouses like BTS and TXT. The label is making waves again with a new boy group debut scheduled for late 2025, emphasizing idols as 'next-generation creators' who actively participate in creating their music, choreography, and visuals. This signals a step toward greater artist involvement and creative control — a refreshing move in an industry known for tightly managed idol groups. However, as part of a massive entertainment conglomerate, BigHit's approach is still primarily top-down, and true independence for artists can be limited compared to indie labels. Despite these challenges, BigHit's legacy, resources, and global reach make it a juggernaut in the music world. For artists seeking immense exposure and world-class production, it's hard to beat BigHit, but the trade-off is navigating the corporate machinery of a major K-pop label.
