Lee Hyori's entertainment agency B2M denied rumors that they signed an exclusive contract with former KARA member Nicole.

Staff stated during a May 20 interview: "We did meet with Nicole, but we are not pursuing a business relationship with her. Nothing is set yet."

B2M Entertainment was established by former DSP employee Gil Jong Hwa; currently, Lee Hyori, Huh Youngseng, and Kim Kyujong have signed with the company. Since Nicole ended her contract with DSP Media on bad terms, her transition to B2M Entertainment would not be a predicted one.

Meanwhile, Nicole had previously released a choreography video, signaling a solo comeback.
