Actress Moon Ga Young, a hot property in the free agent market, is on the lookout for a new agency.

She's seeking a place that can fully tap into her potential, given her impressive track record as a top-tier model for global luxury brands and her acting prowess.

A source close to Moon Ga Young revealed to MyDaily on April 1st, "Moon Ga Young was on the verge of renewing her contract with her current agency, KeyEast, but ultimately chose not to. She recently made this known to the company."

The source added, "Starting this month, she'll begin her search for a new agency. However, she has commitments like overseas shoots, and she plans to take her time making this decision."

The source also mentioned, "2024 is a pivotal year for Moon Ga Young. She has a strong desire to work on a variety of projects as an actress. She's looking for a company that can cater to all these needs and maintain open communication."

Moon Ga Young's recent activities have been nothing short of spectacular.

Back in 2020, she earned the title of 'Rom-Com Queen' through the tvN drama 'True Beauty', which gained popularity not just in Korea but also in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and other Chinese-speaking regions. In 2022, she attempted an image transformation through JTBC's 'Understanding of Love', showcasing another facet of her acting abilities.

Recently, she published her first prose book 'PATA', further expanding her repertoire by continuing her activities as 'writer Moon Ga Young'.

An industry insider described Moon Ga Young as "an MZ actor with talents in various fields" and said, "Among the actors recently mentioned as FAs, she is the one most agencies are keeping an eye on. However, if there was something regrettable about her activities so far, it was the unfortunate impact of COVID-19, and the fact that she, being suitable for overseas activities, couldn't showcase this aspect. We hope she finds an agency that can create a win-win situation in this regard."

Meanwhile, Moon Ga Young, born in 1996, made her acting debut with the movie 'Teacher's Grace' in 2006. Born to a mother who majored in piano and a father who majored in physics, she spent her childhood in Germany. As a result, she naturally became proficient in foreign languages such as English and German, earning her the nickname 'language rich'.
