Jia Receives Praise After News of Her Officially Joining Banana Culture

Former miss A member Jia has officially joined a new agency, Banana Culture!

According to Chinese news platform Sina on June 9th, Jia recently signed an exclusive contract with the agency Banana Culture the day prior, and will be kick starting her activities in the country soon. The report additionally reveals that former EXO member Kris and 2PM‘s Nichkhun from her former label JYP Entertainment have both sent their congratulations to Jia as she starts fresh with a new path.

Banana Culture is known for housing South Korean girl group EXID. But as they also originally have roots in China, Jia is looking to focus her future activities in China.

Meanwhile, Jia officially left both miss A and JYP Entertainment on May 20th after both sides agreed not to renew her contract. This has garnered praises from fans of the artist as they commented she did well to wait until her contract with her first agency expired before making her move to be active in China, throwing shade at several former EXO members who had left the agency and their group in order to pursue individual activities in China on their own.
