Yoon Kye-sang sets his sights on Japan
by javabeans
Yoon Kye-sang is taking his career overseas. Although he’s been in the industry for more than a decade, he’s just now announced his intentions to extend his career abroad, and leaving his longtime management, Sidus HQ, to do it.
Yoon (Who Are You, Crazy for You) had been with Sidus for the past 12 years, starting from his beginnings as a member of kpop group G.O.D., but he has now left to sign with Youyou Entertainment, and will soon be taking his first steps to be active in Japan. A Youyou rep explained that they’re planning on expanding his profile as a Hallyu star in Southeast Asia as well.
To that end, he’ll be holding an April fanmeeting in Japan, for which he is now preparing and which precedes his next drama, Triple, which airs on MBC in June. Although Sidus has gotten some negative press lately (i.e., Jeon Ji-hyun’s cell phone scandal), this move is probably less to do with Sidus itself (Yoon says he has no issues with them, per se), and more of an indication that he wants to take his acting career to the next level — he’s been around for a while but it’s only been in the past several years that he’s pursued acting in earnest. Personally, I don’t care — anything to bring us more Yoon Kye-sang = gooood.

I gotta admit I had never seen Yoon Kye-sang's acting before (yeah, my bad!) so when he was casted for Triple I was a bit worried. I watched Flying boys ever since then and boy, that guy is *good*! Can't wait for Triple.
I hope Kye-sang's all the best for his fanmeeting in Japan!

i LUHHHHHHHVE this guy!!!! most of you might disagree but i think he's a much better actor than singer or dancer. i can't wait for all his next projects...whether it be in korea, japan or SE asia...better yet...he should come to the states so i can turn stalker and jump his bones! :P

His new agency is a Korean one that supposedly has a solid intrastructure in Japan, according to a news article, but I don't know... I'm not feeling too good about his new agency. I hope I'm wrong of course 'cause I adore him and want all the best for him.

belleza: no.. I wish. I actually haven't heard of this company until now. The company's called "You You Entertainment". Funny thing is, I don't think any of the existing artists in that agency is considered a Hallyu star so I'm not sure where the "strong intrastructure in Japan" claim comes from.
