Big Hit Entertainment, the record label behind popular K-pop boy band BTS, is publicly trading on the KOSPI. The stock opened at 270,000 won (USD$235) and saw a surge in price on its first day, followed by a second-day drop.
Demand for Hybe’s (formerly Big Hit Entertainment) stock is high among retail and institutional investors alike. In fact, some 1,420 institutional investors wanted pre-subscription access to Big Hit’s IPO, amounting to 1,117 times the subscription amount allotted to institutional investors.
Shares are available on the KOSPI, and the IPO happened on October 15 2021.
Unfortunately, shares won't be available on any UK exchanges, and so far we haven't heard anything suggesting the company is planning to launch a US IPO. If you want to purchase stocks from the UK, you'll need an international brokerage account.

How do similar companies perform?
It's impossible to predict how any stock will perform — and IPOs can be particularly volatile. But evaluating the performance of companies like Hybe can be useful in determining how the market is performing and whether now is a good time to invest in this industry. Select a company to learn more about what they do and how their stock performs, including market capitalization, the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio and dividend yield. While this list includes a selection of the most well-known and popular stocks, it doesn't include every stock available.

All investing should be regarded as longer term. The value of your investments can go up and down, and you may get back less than you invest. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. If you’re not sure which investments are right for you, please seek out a financial adviser. Capital at risk.
