Actor Kim Seon-ho has found a new home at Fantagio, where Cha Eun-woo and others are affiliated, amid various rumors surrounding his agency transfer. Reports have emerged that Kim Seon-ho received a contract fee of around 2 billion won, generating interest in the "Fantagio trend."
Fantagio stated on the 1st, "Actor Kim Seon-ho has signed an exclusive contract with Fantagio. Actor Kim Seon-ho is known for his stable acting skills and unique charm, and he will receive full support to showcase his talents across various projects and fields."
As a result, Kim Seon-ho has become a new member of Fantagio, joining Cha Eun-woo, Ong Seong-woo, Kang Ye-won, Baek Yoon-sik, and others after leaving Salt Entertainment after six years. Fantagio is home to not only actors but also the group ASTRO, as well as Kim Do-yeon and Choi Yoo-jung from Weki Meki, and Lunaite.
Following the announcement of Kim Seon-ho's transfer to Fantagio, there has been considerable interest in his future movements, with various "rumors" circulating regarding his agency switch. Reports suggest that Kim Seon-ho signed an exclusive contract with Fantagio, rather than Song Joong-ki's agency High Zium Studio, due to a contract fee of around 2 billion won.
Earlier, in December of last year, there were reports that Kim Seon-ho would sign an exclusive contract with Song Joong-ki's High Zium Studio. At that time, High Zium Studio stated, "It is true that we had a meeting, but nothing has been confirmed regarding the contract." It is noted that Kim Seon-ho was still affiliated with Salt Entertainment at that time, leading to criticisms about an unresolved situation with his former agency. His exclusive contract with Salt Entertainment ended in February 2025.
Moreover, reports have emerged that Kim Seon-ho required a large contract fee to purchase an APT., and that he signed an exclusive contract with Fantagio for a contract fee of 2 billion won, drawing attention to the "financial issue." Sensational headlines have flooded in regarding this matter, which has also impacted Kim Seon-ho's image as an actor.
However, in response to these reports, Fantagio has shown a cautious stance, stating, "We cannot confirm details such as the contract fee. We ask for your understanding."
Kim Seon-ho is expected to continue his active career even after the agency transfer. With the series "Unfriend," which he had already finished filming in November 2023, set to air on Tving soon, he is anticipated to meet the public shortly.
