2016–present: Controversies regarding ownership and management
In 2016, Fantagio sold part of its shares to Gold Finance Korea, the Korean branch of JC Group, which is a Chinese real estate and investment company. In 2017, through a paid-in capital increase, JC Group invested more capital in Fantagio and became a major shareholder in the company (owning over 50 percent of stocks). JC Group then dismissed CEO Na Byung Joon, the founder of Fantagio, and put Wei Jie in his place, which resulted in several actors and key staff members at Fantagio leaving the agency.
In May 2018, it was announced that Fantagio lost its membership in Korea Entertainment Management Association.
In April 2019, Wei Jie was arrested in China on fraud charges. In July 2019, Park Hae-sun was added as a co-CEO, and in March 2020 changed to sole CEO.
On May 27, 2020, Gold Finance Korea sold it stocks to L&A Holdings, making them the majority stakeholder. This led to another change in ownership and management, with Hyo-Seop Ji being added as co-CEO on September 24, 2020, then both CEOs being replaced with Park Jae-hong on November 23, 2020.
On February 10, 2021, CEO Park Jae-Hong was changed to CEO Ji Hyo-Seop.
On February 15, 2021, CEO Ji Hyo-seop was changed to Park Jong-jin and Shin Young-jin respectively.
On February 24, 2021, the largest shareholder was changed from L&A Holdings to Mirae ING.
In September 2021, Fantagio moved into the building formerly owned by
