The announcement came from Modhaus, indicating that the renewal was completed ahead of the expiration of their existing contract, an unusual occurrence in the music industry.
Modhaus expressed their excitement in a statement, saying, “We have supported ARTMS through a transparent settlement process, meticulous management, and a variety of album and content planning. With a strong foundation of trust, the contract renewal naturally took place.” The agency also emphasized their commitment to providing full support to the group, ensuring greater synergy and expressing gratitude to their fandom, known as OURII.
ARTMS, comprised of former LOONA members HeeJin, Kim Lip, JinSoul, Choerry, and HaSeul, first signed with Modhaus in March 2023, with HaSeul joining later in June 2023. The group has been gaining momentum since its formation, recently launching their 2025 world tour titled 'Lunar Theory.'
In addition to the contract renewal, ARTMS is set to release their new single 'BURN' on March 28, 2025, at 6 p.m. KST. Teasers for the single have already been made available online, generating excitement among fans.
Modhaus has stated that during the renewal discussions, both parties established a “vision and systemic strategy for the future,” raising expectations for the group's upcoming activities. The partnership between ARTMS and Modhaus appears to be built on a strong foundation of mutual trust and shared goals, with both sides eager to explore new opportunities.
Prior to the contract renewal, ARTMS had already made waves in the industry with their first full-length album, 'Dall (Moon, Devine All Love & Live),' which was released last year. The album achieved remarkable success, selling over 120,000 copies shortly after its release, indicating a solid fanbase and market presence.
The group recently kicked off their 'Lunar Theory' world tour in Seoul, where they performed to enthusiastic crowds. The tour is expected to expand to the United States and Europe, allowing them to connect with a broader audience. Their first U.S. show is scheduled to take place in Chicago, followed by performances in cities like Indianapolis, Detroit, New York, St. Petersburg, Houston, Los Angeles, Tacoma, and San Francisco throughout April. The European leg of the tour is set to follow in May.
As they prepare for the release of 'BURN' and continue their world tour, ARTMS is poised to solidify their position in the K-pop landscape. The contract renewal with Modhaus not only signifies a commitment to their current trajectory but also opens the door for more diverse activities and creative projects in the future.
