After going back to his hometown in Los Angeles, GOT7 member Mark Tuan has announced the establishment of his new studio named “Duan Yi En Studio.”

The news was confirmed via Chinese microblogging website Sina Weibo after a new profile named after Mark's real name was put in place.

Following the profile creation, the account posted a GIF clip of Mark Tuan welcoming guests to come inside.

It said, “Hello everyone, welcome to @MarkTuan studio. R U Ready? See you tomorrow.”

According to eagle-eyed fans, Mark seems to be establishing his studio in China due to his increasing presence in the Chinese market.

It can be recalled that he held his first-ever fan meeting in China titled “On Your Mark” from 2019 to 2020 by visiting the cities Nanjing, Chengdu, and Shanghai. Furthermore, he is a brand ambassador for many Chinese brands, including Davines, Mentholatum, and China Unicorn, a large telecommunications operator.

He has also debuted there as a solo artist with his Chinese singles “Outta My Head” and “Never Told You.”

It seems like setting up his own studio has been a plan of Mark Tuan for a while.

In a recent Instagram Live, the K-pop idol revealed that he wouldn't be entering any entertainment company in South Korea or the United States as he wants to “do things on his own.”

He revealed to fans, “I did receive a couple of offers, but I don't think I'll be in any for now. I don't think I'll be in any here in the United States too.

“I want to try doing this on my own that way, and I can do the things I want to do. If I join a company… I don't know…”

Now that he is his own boss, the GOT7 member is currently gearing up to release his latest single, “One In A Million,” in collaboration with Sanjoy.

The song will be revealed this coming February 12th and will be his first release since GOT7's departure from JYP Entertainment back in January.

Recently, the 27-year-old released a 7-minute vlog of himself moving back to Los Angeles from Korea.

The clip featured members JB, Jackson, Yugyeom, Jinyoung, Youngjae, and Bambam bidding him farewell and said that they'd meet each other soon.


Cheers to Mark Tuan's new beginning!
