History
2019–present: Founding and first artists
Following Psy's departure from YG Entertainment in 2018, Psy founded his own entertainment company, P Nation.[6] Psy announced the first artist signed to his label in January 2019, the rapper Jessi.[7] Later that month P Nation signed Hyuna and Dawn, after their joint departure from Cube Entertainment.[8]
Following the announcement of the establishment of P Nation, the stock of DI Corporation, owned by Psy's father, rose for eight consecutive days, despite the companies having no business connections.[9]
In April, SK Telecom invested 5 billion won in the company as part of their content investment strategy, bringing their sharehold to ten percent.[2][10] In June, P Nation signed the singer Crush.[11]
In September 2020, Heize, a rapper and singer previously signed to Stone Music Entertainment, was signed to the label.[12] In November, it was announced that P Nation would join with JYP Entertainment to host a new survival reality show, titled Loud, that would result in two new boy groups, one from each company. The program is expected to air in 2021, following global auditions for the program.[13] In December, P Nation signed D.Ark, a rapper who appeared on Show Me the Money 777, Show Me the Money 9 and High School Rapper 4.[14]
In April 2021, Penomeco and Swings were each announced to have signed with P Nation.[15]
On November 12, 2021, it was confirmed that D.Ark had left P Nation.[16]
On May 17, 2022, P Nation debuted their first boy group, TNX, with 6 members[17][18]
On July 6, 2022, it was announced that Jessi would be leaving P Nation after 3 years.[19][20] On August 29, Hyuna and Dawn also left the label.[21][22]
In October 2022, P Nation launched an online fan forum called SoPSYety, based on non-fungible tokens (NFT).[23]
