Former EPEX member Keum Dong-hyun has signed with Management RUN.
On Dec. 5, the agency announced an exclusive deal with Keum, noting he first stood out at 17 on Mnet’s "Produce X 101" for his rich lower-register vocals and sharp dance skills, quickly building a devoted fanbase. The company teased a new chapter ahead and asked fans to look forward to what they will create together.
In 2021, Keum appeared in TVING’s "Scripting Your Destiny" as a hockey-playing first love, winning hearts with his boy-next-door charm and soulful gaze. He also played younger love interest Kang Yi-han in the hit web dramas "Best Mistake 2" (2020) and "Best Mistake 3" (2021), which have racked up more than 50 million cumulative views, his signature eye-smile leaving viewers grinning.
Even before his official debut, he showed real promise as an actor, and in 2022 he joined the series "Fall for You", taking on the key supporting role of Shin Han-se and continuing his steady growth.
While promoting with EPEX, Keum also made a name for himself as the lead host of MBC M’s music program "Show! Champion".
Management RUN has launched a dedicated team for idols-turned-actors and says it will actively support Keum’s activities both in Korea and overseas.
