Singer Yoon Se-yeon has signed an exclusive contract with trot label JL Group, drawing attention.

On the morning of the 6th, JL Group said, “We have signed an exclusive contract with singer Yoon Se-yeon, who has a refreshing and sweet voice and energy. We will support Yoon Se-yeon, who has the passion and energy of youth, to grow into an artist loved by the public.”

Yoon Se-yeon is an artist who has earned the nickname ‘MZ singer’ as a inheritor of Gyeonggi folk songs, a national intangible cultural asset, and has continued to attempt various musical attempts such as composition and crossover beyond traditional music. In addition to winning various national music competitions, she became known through JTBC‘s ‘Pungryu Daejang’, and also won the ‘Best Artist of the Year’ award at the ‘Youth in Bloom’, a youth national music incubation project hosted by the National Jeongdong Theater.

Since then, Yoon Se-yeon has been releasing fusion national music tracks such as ‘Napalbaji’, ‘Open the Door’, and has been working to popularize Gyeonggi folk songs by making them more accessible to a wide range of age groups through collaborations with various artists. She recently caught the eye by winning the grand prize at the ‘National Singing Contest’ 2024 year-end finals.

Meanwhile, the trot trio girl group Second is affiliated with JL Group.
