Comedian Lee Eunji announced a new leap by joining the creative artist management Blackpaper (BLACKPAPER), founded by Yoo Byungjae and CEO Yoo Kyuseon.
Blackpaper said in an official statement on the 11th, "We have signed an exclusive contract with Lee Eunji, who possesses irreplaceable energy and a genius sense of comedy. The boundless potential that Lee Eunji has will meet Blackpaper's planning capabilities and present fresh content that is not bound by existing formats," it said.
Blackpaper is a creative studio that has successfully established original content reflecting each artist's individual color. Creators from various fields gather to create synergy, including artists with strong fandoms like Yoo Byungjae and Jonathan; Im Seungwon, known as the director of "72-hour blind date" and the creator One's Monologue; director Lee Taedong, producer of the web drama "JoJoSo"; YouTube creator Jimmijo; and Instagram toon artist Idea Bobusang.
Blackpaper has built a filmography by collaborating with various platforms such as Disney+ and TVING, and especially the "72-hour blind date," planned by CEO Yoo Kyuseon and directed by One's Monologue, created a sensation as it was recognized by the public for its solid planning capabilities. Based on Blackpaper's production infrastructure, Lee Eunji plans to actively engage in producing a variety of formats that reflect her sensibility as well as her existing broadcasting activities.
Having established herself as an icon of Millennials and Gen Z through "Earth Arcade" and her alter ego "Paris Eunji Ttuntun," industry expectations are focused on what kind of synergy Lee Eunji will create with distinctive creators such as Yoo Byungjae and Jonathan.
Blackpaper CEO Yoo Kyuseon said, "Lee Eunji is a clever artist who freely crosses the boundary between planner and performer," adding, "Blackpaper will be the optimal partner for her to imagine freely and realize those ideas."
Attention is focused on what projects Lee Eunji, who announced a new start with Blackpaper, will use to showcase her unique sensibility.
