Tiffany Young Signs With Pacific Music Group Ahead of Solo Anniversary
Girls' Generation's Tiffany Young joins Pacific Music Group, founded by Ne-Yo, MC Jin, Sonu Nigam, and Jonathan Serbin, marking a new chapter in her solo career as she approaches her 10th anniversary.
Tiffany Young, nearing two decades in the entertainment industry and her 10th anniversary as a solo artist, has signed with Pacific Music Group (PMG) in anticipation of upcoming music releases. This move signifies a pivotal moment in her career, aligning her with a company focused on global Pan-Asian music and entertainment.
Pacific Music Group has signed Tiffany to a 360 deal that includes full management representation and a recording contract with Pacific Records. This agreement also marks the formal launch of the Korean roster for PMG, a company founded by Ne-Yo, MC Jin, Sonu Nigam, and Jonathan Serbin. Notably, Billboard recently reported Timbaland's AI artist, TaTa, also signed with PMG for management.
"As I step into the next phase of my career, I find myself focusing more than ever on intention—on the quiet importance of details and on building meaningful connection through the work I create," Young shared in a statement to Billboard. "I’m honored and excited to begin this new chapter with Pacific Music Group as I prepare for my 10th solo anniversary album and the promotions to come... More than anything, I’m looking forward to celebrating this moment with my fans."
Young's journey began at 15 when she moved from California to Seoul to train with SM Entertainment, eventually debuting as a member of Girls’ Generation in 2007. The group significantly influenced the K-pop landscape. As part of Girls’ Generation-TTS, Tiffany achieved a milestone with Twinkle, the first Billboard 200 entry for a Korean-pop girl group. Her solo debut in May 2016 with the EP I Just Wanna Dance reached the top 5 on Billboard's World Albums chart, with the title track achieving similar success on the World Digital Song Sales chart. This was followed by 2019’s Lips on Lips, featuring Babyface.
In recent years, Young has expanded her repertoire to include musicals, such as playing Roxie Hart in Chicago, acting in Disney+'s Uncle Samsik, and TV judging roles on K-pop competition shows like Girls Planet 999 and Peak Time.
Serbin, co-founder and CEO of Pacific Music Group, stated, "Tiffany is exactly the kind of artist Pacific Music Group was built to partner with. She’s a true pioneer... Launching our Korean roster with Tiffany is incredibly meaningful, and her 10th anniversary solo release in May 2026 will be a powerful statement."
Pacific Music Group, headquartered in Hong Kong, is expanding its Seoul operations, including the addition of Samuel Ku, to bolster artist management, creative development, and marketing.
New music from Young under Pacific Records is expected later this year.
