In March, RBW acquired WM Entertainment, home to OH MY GIRL and B1A4; thus, making the two aforementioned groups affiliates to RBW artists.

According to the securities report, MAMAMOO secures its position as the highest contributor and top-tier girl group with about 8.9 billion won sales in the first half of 2021 — accounting for 36.5% of total sales.

Despite MAMAMOO's incredible performance in the first half of 2021, RBW's profit in the second half is expected to decrease following the group's renewal in June without Wheein.

This is for the reason that the profit distribution ratio usually changes in favor of the artist when renewing the contract.

While Hwasa renewed her contract with RBW until June 2023, Solar in June 2024, and Moonbyul in June 2024 — Wheein left the company and transferred to THE L1VE led by VIXX Ravi.

Nevertheless, Wheein agreed to appear in MAMAMOO's solo concert and participate in two albums by 2023.
