OUR STORY
OUR STORY
HALSUG (hal-su-ji) began as a networking community on LinkedIn for K-music enthusiasts in April 2022. Most of the members were mainly college students pursuing their dreams as aspiring industry professionals. The music industry being competitive as it is, many of us were facing hardships due to limited opportunities, career transitions, and not being able to relocate to major cities that excel in the arts/entertainment industries. That’s when we decided to create a community for ourselves, one that we would uplift together and dedicate our time to doing the things we love.
Our name HALSUG (hal-su-ji) derives from the Korean verb (hal-su-itta) 할 수 있다, which means I can/you can do it. The ‘G’ stands for implementing globalization.
OUR MISSION
As we kept growing, we wanted to share more than what brought us together. We eventually expanded our spectrum to support underrepresented/indie artists - primarily POC. We want to share with everyone the artists that we as music enthusiasts resonate with.
A GLOBAL COMMUNITY WITH ONE VISION
As of June 2023, HALSUG has been established as a media and events production company that consists of over 70 members around the globe working collaboratively due to one shared vision - to introduce underrepresented artists beyond mainstream genres and provide a platform where discovery for new music is infinite.
