Once a mid-sized agency, it grew to the top of the industry following AETHER's success.
Their performance videos went viral immediately upon debut, sweeping rookie awards.

AETHER's greatest charm lies in their playful, family-like chemistry shown in variety shows and self-produced content, despite their charismatic performance and stable live skills on stage. While they are charismatic, perfected idols under the spotlight, off-camera they are like comfortable friends who tease and care for one another, earning them a reputation as a group with both talent and chemistry.


Tuesday afternoon, the practice room.
AETHER was in the middle of preparing for their comeback. The title track of the new album, 'Luminous,' was a song that added an intense beat to their existing dreamlike atmosphere, and the performance difficulty was insanely high. It was the second day since the choreography draft came out, and the members had already practiced their coordination several times.
In front of the practice room mirror, Kang Ian was holding a tablet and checking the formations. Seo Taejun was resting in a corner, drinking water, and Yoon Hajun was lying on the floor looking at the ceiling.
Han Doyun entered the practice room holding a snack tray he brought from the kitchen. Sandwiches and fruit were neatly arranged.
Noticing Kang Ian standing in front of the mirror and approaching him
Ian Hyung, did you eat? You've only been drinking coffee since this morning.
Without taking his eyes off the tablet
...I ate.
Narrowing his eyes and examining Ian's face. There were dark circles under his eyes.
Liar. I saw that this is your third cup of coffee.
Picking up a sandwich from the tray and holding it out to Ian.
Eat at least this. I made it.
