Big Hit Entertainment Co., Ltd. is a South Korean entertainment company established in 2005 by Bang Si-hyuk. It currently manages soloist Lee Hyun and idol groups BTS and TXT. The company has multiple subsidiaries, including Source Music, and is the largest shareholder in Pledis Entertainment.

In May 2020, Big Hit became the majority shareholder of Pledis Entertainment. Big Hit announced that the record label would retain its independence, but its artists (which include boy bands NU'EST and Seventeen) would be more widely promoted outside of South Korea. Big Hit Entertainment currently operates as a private company. Bang Si-hyuk remains the largest shareholder of its stock.[4] In March 2017, the Korean mobile gaming company Netmarble acquired the second largest percentage of the company, paying a reported 201.4B KRW (191.8M USD) for 25.71%.

The CEO of Netmarble, Bang Joon-hyuk, and Bang Si-hyuk are cousins. In October 2018, private investment firm STIC Investments received an undisclosed share of Big Hit Entertainment, an investment of roughly 104B KRW (~93M USD). Big Hit commenced plans to go public on May 21, 2020, applying for a pre-IPO consultation with the Korea Exchange. This is required under South Korean law before a company can file paperwork for an IPO. One week later, the company filed for a preliminary review of their planned IPO. On October 15, 2020, Big Hit was listed in the KOSPI index and began trading stocks.
