ShowBT Philippines is an entertainment, creative content and event promotion group based in the Philippines. The company was founded on 2012 by Jung Seong-han (정성한), a South Korean comedian and a former member of the popular comedic team Cult Triple in 2012[1] to commercially develop world class individuals and entertainment properties with an established music or fashion pedigree. The company provides artist services that include management, television, music, public events production, social media engagement, Public Relations, and entertainment marketing and has offices in South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam and UAE.

The company produced Aja Aja Tayo!, the first Filipino-Korean reality variety show in the Philippine television broadcast on TV5.[2] The company also manages the global pop group SB19, the first Pinoy pop group and Southeast Asian act to make it to the final list of Billboard Music Awards for Top Social Artist and nominated to the MTV Europe Music Awards.[3][4] and 4th Impact, a Filipino girl group who competed in the twelfth season of the British singing contest The X Factor, where they finished in fifth place.[5][6] ShowBT also manages soloist rapper Pablo and RnB singer Felip.

Starting point

On 2005, ShowBT has been operating a department specializing in education development and presenting participatory educational contents that combine various genres including literature and art.

Jung's long-time goal has been the "localization" of K-pop. It is the reason ShowBT introduce a new paradigm to the Southeast Asian cultural market through the production and distribution of cultural contents based on Hallyu (Korean wave).

"One big rationale behind SB19's unusual rise is the members' musical talent, which they have been polishing for three years before the debut. Everyone said I was insane to train them for such a lengthy period without making any money. But I launched SB19 after having the members practice singing and dancing for a song 1,000 times until they were impeccable." Jung told The Korea Times on Thursday at a restaurant in Hyehwa-dong, Seoul.

In May 2018, ShowBT oversaw the 2018 Miss Korea Pageant regional preliminaries.[9]
