Han is already considered a “perfect all-rounder” but it looks like the STRAY KIDS rapper has added yet another feather to his cap. It has been confirmed that Han Jisung is officially a full member of the Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA). This makes him the youngest full member of the association at the age of 22!
HAN of STRAY KIDS Becomes Youngest KOMCA Full Member
KOMCA is a non-profit organization in South Korea dedicated to managing and safeguarding the copyright interests of musical works. This includes the administration of public performance and broadcasting rights, as well as mechanical recording and reproduction rights.
The organization extends an invitation to copyright owners including authors, composers, arrangers, and music publishers. Once an individual accepts, they become an associate member. Through this affiliation, music creators and rights holders can benefit from KOMCA’s services and expertise in ensuring their creative works are protected.
Attaining full membership status in this prestigious organization is contingent upon fulfilling specific prerequisites. Aspiring members must first sustain an associate membership for a minimum of three years, while concurrently amassing royalties exceeding 30 million won. This meticulous selection process permits the elevation of merely 25 members to full status each year, ensuring the highest standards are upheld. However, STRAY KIDS members Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han have all accomplished this. The formidable sub-unit 3RACHA achieved this coveted milestone in January 2023.
The milestone is also huge for Han who managed to become a full member of KOMCA at the age of 22. In addition to that, he has an impressive collection of 135 registered songs to his name. Han Jisung is also the third most credited idol from the 4th generation of K-pop artists.
Although he didn’t go on an official celebration for the milestone, Han clearly wanted to treat STAYS with a special gift. The rapper recently released a new self-composed song “Miserable (You & Me)”.

Han is currently set to join STRAY KIDS on their all-dome concert tour “5-Star Dome Tour” in South Korea and Japan from August to October 2023. The group was recently confirmed to perform at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards at Newark’s Prudential Center on September 12, 2023.
