Polaris Entertainment was founded on August 21, 2006. At its founding, it was the subsidiary of Ilgwang Group, a corporation primarily dealing with arms trade. In their early years, the label managed notable artists such as Kim Bum-soo and Ivy and actors such as Oh Yoon-ah and Jung Joon. In March 2013, the girl group Ladies' Code debuted under Polaris, and in doing so became the first girl group under the record label. The group was successful in its early years, having been a nominee for multiple awards, however, one year later, a car crash on September 3, 2014, caused the death of two members of the group. The group would then return in 2016 for the release of a new EP. In late 2018, it was confirmed that the company had signed former Wonder Girls member, Sunye following her 5 year hiatus. In 2019, the company revealed plans to debut a new six member boy group known as Tripleme, revealing each member officially as well as promoting the group on their YouTube channel. However, the group ceased activity after November 2020, without officially debuting. In spring of 2022, Polaris's website officially shut down, following the departure of all musical artists within the company. The company is still active.
