In 2023, MonoTree was acquired by Kreation Music Rights, a subsidiary of SM Entertainment, as an in-house independent company CIC (Company In Company).[1]

MonoTree Inc. is a music Producing & Publishing company organized to build a world-class pop music culture.

MonoTree is comprised of the members who lead the Asian Popular Music as music producers, artists, and songwriters. We have been working with many Asian pop. artists as a song production company.

MonoTree was founded in 2014 by 3 music producers (Hyun Hwang, G- high and JooHyoung Lee) who want to build creative alliances to share and facilitate the ideas about the music culture with creative musicians and organizations.

Now days, we are not only composing the song, but also directing the concept of the artist in new ways as producers.
