According to media outlet reports on April 21 KST, singer/actor Jaejoong has decided to join hands with a former manager he worked with 20 years ago at a startup entertainment agency. 

After parting ways with his label of 14-years, C-Jes Entertainment, earlier this week, Jaejoong has chosen to work with Noh Hyun Tae, a former director at Cube Entertainment who will be setting up his own label soon. 

In addition to joining Noh Hyun Tae's label as its first artist, Jaejoong will allegedly take on a new role as a producer, working alongside Noh Hyun Tae to produce a rookie K-Pop idol group. 

Meanwhile, Jaejoong is currently appearing on the Channel A reality program, 'Men's Life These Days - Groom Class'.

i am not sure about having former idol being producers, i mean a lot of such examples dun work out..

like Rain also become a producer, but his groups are like not so successful, though Shinhwa's Andy started TOP Entertainment and did have success with TEEN TOP, and HOT's Tony An started TN Entertainment and did debut SMASH but disbanded later, Shinhwa's Eric and Min woo also started Top Class Entertainment and produced Stellar.

Former DIA member, Cho Yihyun is also now CEO of M25, (subsidary of MBK) and is handling the new idol group, CLASSy debut from My Teenager Girl also.


so it seems quite a lot of 1st generation idols have tried using their money and experience to create entertainment agencies and debut idol groups, but many have not been successful.
