Eric Nam Signs with UTA, Eyes Global Stardom

Singer Eric Nam has secured representation with UTA across all facets of his career. This strategic partnership aims to further his expansion into the U.S. market following his established success in Korea.

Nam is preparing for the release of his new album, "Confessions of a Lonely Heart," scheduled for October 16. This musical endeavor follows his notable participation in the recent season of Peacock's reality competition show, "The Traitors," where he became a fan favorite.

His presence in the entertainment industry is growing with significant film projects. Nam lent his voice to Aang in Paramount's animated "Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender" feature. He is also slated to appear in "K-Pop: The Debut," a K-pop film from Paramount and Hybe, expected in 2027. This film is notable as potentially the first major American studio production entirely filmed in South Korea.

Beyond his performance career, Nam is a co-founder of Dive Studios, a global media company focused on Korean entertainment, culture, and commerce. The studio produces various content, including podcasts and original video series like "Daebak Show," hosted by Nam himself, featuring interviews with K-pop artists and celebrities. Dive Studios also offers marketing services for international brands.
