*Only artists that debuted/will debut under JYPE or one of it’s sub-labels (formed by JYPE) will be mentioned in the profile. This does not include artists under subsidiaries (company was already formed before merging with JYPE).
**2AM was co-managed by Big Hit Entertainment, so some of the members solo debuts were not released by JYP Entertainment, therefore they will not be mentioned in this profile.
***The sub units JJ Project and 3RACHA are mentioned desperately because they debuted before their group’s debut. Other sub units of these groups will not be mentioned as they debuted after the group did.
