Jam Factory (
Korean: 잼 팩토리;
RR: Jaem Paektori) is a South Korean
music publisher which sources song tunes and lyrics for
K-pop,
J-pop and
Mandopop artists from songwriters predominantly based in the US.[1] Writers of the tunes are often songwriters for American companies, such as Brandon Fraley, a well known provider of tunes to South Korean girl and boy bands, who is a songwriter for
Sony Music Publishing in
Los Angeles. Korean, Japanese and Chinese language lyrics are usually provided by Jam Factory's own lyricists based in
Seoul.[2]
As with the songwriters of America's Motown era Jam Factory's songwriters and lyricists may support a band's development over many years. For example,
Girls' Generation songwriter team has included Korean lyricist Kim Hee-jeong for over 8 years, his lyrics growing with the band.[3]
In January 2013, Jam Factory established L Diary Lyrics & Toplining Academy, where aspiring Korean songwriters could learn to write song lyrics and vocal melodies.[4] Since then, L Diary has produced around 100 professional songwriters through over 40 songwriting camps where students are given the opportunity to write lyrics and toplines for prominent K-Pop artists.
