Baro Entertainment has confirmed that it recently met with TWICE member Jeongyeon, placing the focus of the latest Jeongyeon Baro Rumors on a verified agency meeting rather than a completed transfer. No exclusive contract has been announced, and JYP Entertainment has stated that discussions over renewal with Jeongyeon and TWICE are still continuing.1
The issue surfaced on June 24, 2026, when multiple Korean entertainment outlets reported that Jeongyeon had held a meeting with Baro Entertainment, the agency associated with actors including Gong Seung-yeon and Byeon Woo-seok. The central confirmed point is narrow: a meeting took place, but a decision on Jeongyeon’s agency status has not been made public.2
Baro Entertainment Confirms Jeongyeon Meeting

OSEN reported on June 24 that Jeongyeon had recently met with Baro Entertainment. A Baro Entertainment representative confirmed the meeting, saying, “It is true that we held a meeting with Jeongyeon,” while also making clear that no exclusive contract had been finalized.1
That distinction is important because the reports quickly drew attention around whether Jeongyeon could leave JYP Entertainment and move to an actor-focused agency. Source reports did not state that she had signed with Baro Entertainment, nor did they provide a contract date, contract term, or formal transfer announcement. The available information supports only the existence of a meeting and the absence of a confirmed exclusive contract.
SPOTV News also reported that Jeongyeon met with Baro Entertainment ahead of her anticipated acting debut, noting that her older sister Gong Seung-yeon is under the same agency. The outlet listed Baro Entertainment artists including Gong Seung-yeon, Byeon Woo-seok, Jin Goo, Lee Chae-min, and Lee You-mi.2
The family connection has been a major reason the story drew public interest, but the reports do not say that it determined Jeongyeon’s next agency. They describe it as a relevant context around Baro Entertainment, not as proof of a final decision.
JYP Says Renewal Discussions Are Still Ongoing
JYP Entertainment’s position remains that talks are continuing. In OSEN’s report, a JYP Entertainment representative said the company is “continuing discussions” with Jeongyeon during the renewal discussion period.1
SPOTV News separately quoted JYP Entertainment as saying that it is continuing careful discussions while respecting mutual intentions.2 Ilgan Sports reported a similar position from JYP, with the agency saying it would provide information once matters are finalized.3
Those statements frame the current status as unresolved. The reports do not say that Jeongyeon has left JYP Entertainment, and they do not say that TWICE’s contract situation has been completed. Instead, the repeated agency position is that discussions remain in progress.
Newsis also reported that TWICE members are currently in a renewal discussion period with JYP Entertainment, while noting that Jeongyeon has been cast in the film ‘신병: 더 무비’ and is preparing for a screen debut.4 Ilgan Sports likewise mentioned her upcoming acting debut through the same film while covering JYP’s response to the Baro Entertainment meeting report.3
The acting-related context helps explain why Baro Entertainment, an agency with a roster of actors, became part of the discussion. However, the available reports do not state that Jeongyeon’s acting debut requires a change of agency, nor do they indicate that a management arrangement for acting work has already been completed.
What Is Confirmed and What Is Not
As of the June 24 reports, the confirmed facts are limited but consistent across outlets. Jeongyeon recently met with Baro Entertainment. Baro Entertainment acknowledged the meeting. JYP Entertainment says renewal discussions are continuing. No source record includes an official announcement that Jeongyeon has signed an exclusive contract with Baro Entertainment.5
Star Today reported that the possibility of Jeongyeon moving to the agency of her older sister Gong Seung-yeon had been raised, while also covering Baro Entertainment’s confirmation of the meeting and JYP Entertainment’s position on renewal discussions. The same report did not present a finalized exclusive contract announcement.5
The Korea Economic Daily also reported that Jeongyeon had a meeting with Baro Entertainment, describing public interest in whether she could leave JYP Entertainment and expand acting activities. That report likewise did not confirm a completed exclusive contract.6

For now, the Jeongyeon Baro Rumors remain centered on a confirmed meeting and an unsettled contract situation. Unless either JYP Entertainment, Baro Entertainment, or Jeongyeon announces a final decision, the most accurate reading is that agency discussions are ongoing and no transfer has been officially completed.
