Girls' Revolution leader Tiffany Taeyeon was a guest on Friday night's episode of The Late Show with Kang-Min Soo, where she announced that she's signed an exclusive solo record deal in Japan!
The sexy starlet was on the show to promote the next season of her hit K-drama Busan Heights, where she revealed to Kang-Min that she is now signed to Japan's biggest record label SLAVEX after the host pressed her about her solo music career.
"I'm the only member of Girls' Revolution that hasn't gone solo yet," she said. "I've been too busy with my other activities, but when SLAVEX offered me my own solo deal, I couldn't refuse."
"I look forward to showing off my individual strengths," she continued,"as well as facing Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and Mademoiselle Yulia on the charts -- they said mean things about me and Jessica unnie, so I am excited to get my revenge by having a more successful career than theirs."
Tiffany didn't reveal much else about her future plans, but her manager Trina Villota was quick to phone the AKF office to confirm the official details of the new venture.
"Yes, Tiffany is now signed exclusively to Japan's biggest agency, SLAVEX," she said. "SLAVEX is home to Japan's top artists, so we are very excited for Tiffany's future over there. As part of the new deal, I will co-manage Tiffany's solo music activities in Japan alongside the team at SLAVEX, while White Entertainment will continue to oversee all other aspects of her career, including acting, modelling, and all music related to Heathers and Girls' Revolution."
"White Entertainment is still a small agency with limited resources in some areas, so when the lucrative opportunity for Tiffany to sign to SLAVEX was presented to us, we took it immediately. We are already so busy managing Jessica Jiyeon's successful career, as well as Suzy Sooyoung and HyunA Knowles. We also have Heathers and Girls' Revolution group projects, penciled in for next year, so it was just easier for Tiffany to have a separate deal in Japan where she will receive the best promotion and support. SLAVEX are confident that Tiffany Taeyeon will become a huge sttar in Japan."
Trina also revealed that Tiffany will release her first solo single in January, which will be a double A-side release containing music from the dance and electronic genre of music. Tiffany is said to be making a 180-degree transformation for her solo debut, with a new side to her image that's never been seen before.
Netizens have been quick to respond to the huge news, pushing aside their holidays celebrations long enough to rush to our forums to share their opinions.
"So this means she won't release any more music in Korea? Thank God.", "Tiffany is so rude, so Japan can have her. I'd rather listen to Jessica and Suzy, anyway," and "So Heathers and Girls' Revolution weren't offered Japanese record deals, but Tiffany was? They must see something special in her. Tiffany hwaiting!"
