Kanto says Rhymer's personality softened up after his marriage

In a recent interview with 'Newsen', Kanto opened up about his relationship with Rhymer, the CEO of Brand New Music. Having been with the agency for seven years, Kanto relayed that he and Rhymer are very close, and they share similar ideas about independently making music. "I don't know about the other idol groups, but Rhymer doesn't really involve himself in the label artists' music. If one brings in a song, he simply arranges it and organizes it. Things flow very smoothly," he said.

Furthermore, Kanto revealed that he noticed a change in Rhymer's personality. After his marriage to a former SBS announcer, Rhymer allegedly became a "softer" human being. "He doesn't get easily angered as before. He even volunteered to deliver coal briquettes with his wife earlier this winter," shared Kanto.
