The information on Kim Seon-ho’s exclusive contract with Salt Entertainment which spread in the industry has been confirmed as incorrect.
As a result of Dong-A.com’s coverage, the exclusive contract between Kim Seon-ho and Salt Entertainment will end in the first half of 2023. The previous report regarding the expiration of their exclusive contract in September is incorrect information. He signed a one-year exclusive contract with Salt Entertainment in September 2018 and both sides have decided to work with each other after that.
Since then, mutual trust has accumulated, which led to additional contracts (three years of exclusive contract maintenance period) in the first half of 2020. The six-month contract gap has been filled only by their trust in each other. And this contract is only known in the industry as a three-year contract. In the meantime, some agencies judged that it was the end of Kim Seon-ho‘s exclusive contract and had tried to contact him.
However, the expiration of the exclusive contract between Kim Seon-ho and Salt Entertainment is in the first half of 2023. Salt Entertainment reiterates its intention to solve the problem, and Kim Seon-ho is also currently discussing with his agency.
Meanwhile, Kim Seon-ho was pointed out as actor K of “the abortion scandal” and virtually admitted and apologized. Salt Entertainment, his agency, is also apologizing for the lack of initial response and meeting stakeholders to solve the actor’s problem. However, Kim Seon-ho’s future activity might be difficult. Even if stakeholders accept him, it remains unsure whether Kim Seon-ho will be able to prove his product value as an actor in the industry due to the current strong distrust towards him.
