Super Junior members Donghae and Eunhyuk marked a new milestone in the career with the establishment of their own agency ODE Entertainment. 

In a press release to Newsen, the newly-minted label confirmed that it was established by the Super Junior members.

“[They] have taken their place as co-CEOs after the expiration of their contracts with SM Entertainment,” the statement continued. 

Additionally, Super Junior’s longtime manager Wong Yon Sun also came with the two idols in ODE Entertainment. 

 

The confirmation came more than a month after Donghae, Eunhyuk, and Kyuhyun left SM Entertainment. Currently, Kyuhyun is  the Antenna agency.

Despite their departure from the agency as individuals, the three will continue participating as members of Super Junior. The group, which debuted in 2005, has renewed its contract with SM Entertainment.

Interestingly, the two joined the growing roster of K-pop idols who established their own entertainment agencies. The list includes Kang Daniel, Kim Sohye, HIGHLIGHT, and INFINITE among others. 

What’s next for Donghae and Eunhyuk?

While there’s still no additional details about Donghae and Eunhyuk’s plans for ODE Entertainment, fans are already looking forward to this new start for the idols. 

Especially that Eunhyuk and Donghae have also been promoting as the Super Junior sub-unit D&E. The duo, who was the fifth sub-unit of Super Junior, made their debut in 2011. 

As a unit, the act is known for their songs “Oppa, Oppa,” “B.A.D,” “Can You Feel It?” “Danger,” “Growing Pains,” and “Bout You.” 

As of now, the two are also embarking on their Delight Party fan concert tour. 

Moreover, Donghae was recently confirmed to star in the upcoming romantic-comedy series Man and Woman. Meanwhile, Eunhyuk is an artist director in the pre-debut reality show NCT Universe: LASTART.

As for group activities, they’re also set to star in the travel show Knights of the Lamp.
