The confirmation has finally come today as YG Entertainment announced, "Preparations for Jessica's solo album, which she has been quietly preparing for on her own, is set to officially kick off under the complete support of her new agency."
"Jessica has put her trust in YG's CEO in terms of her contract conditions and negotiations, and we needed to prepare a deal that suits Jessica, who is receiving high popularity in South Korea, Japan, China and all of Asia. We recently finished our preparations to support Jessica, and naturally signed a contract."
It has been reported that the idol chose YG Entertainment because she prioritized an agency that understands her well enough to support her endeavors. She also had a connection with the CEO in the past, and thus, this naturally led to her signing with her new agency.
