Scandalous ◇ The Trials of CoterieRiot: History and Choice Discography
"We're going to start! Hello, we are Riot!" One of Sungwon's earliest success stories. Circle Media had other artists, but never a group. Riot, named after what effect Sungwon has hoped the ladies would create, was a four member group.that became known for their vocals and lively, humorous personalities. For a time, they were likened to groups such as Sistar, Miss A, and Secret when they were all at their peak. Riot were winners in both music and variety. Theit concerts sold out time and time again, and their fanbase was strong.
Things wouldn't remain that way. Sungwon retired from being CEO, and Sungmin turned out to be not ideal. He made sweeping changes in the company. This alienated Riot, and when their seven years came, only Miyeon and Minji renewed their contracts. It was announced later that year of their official disbandment,
Miyeon went on to be a variety personality and soloist. Minji turned to acting and even released a solo album of her own along with various OSTs. Haeun and Soonah would leave the entertainment industry.
At this time, with Miyeon's scandal and impending marriage, only Minji remains with Circle Media. The memory of Riot remains strong with their fans, and many hope for a future reunion.

Omni: History and Title Tracks
"Always there! We are Omni!" Despite Sungmin's interference and meddlings once Sungwon retired, Yongsun still retained her vision of debuting a boy group after the success of Riot. With Riot's disbandment just before Omni's debut, a lot rode on the success or failure of them. If they failed, more than just money could have been lost. As such, Yongsun took great care in selecting her boys for the group, including looking for talents not only performance, but alos production and choreography.
Omni is known for mostly producing their own work from the start. Some thought they'd end up like another BTS wannabe, but their debut song was a surprise last minute change. The change paid off and Omni debuted strong to surprisingly high rankings in the music charts. Their subsequent releases, while well received, didn't quite reach as high as their debut until A Song Written Easily was released. The romantic song struck a chord to the surprise of everyone at Circle as it was a change of sound for the group. Omni saw a steady rise from there with their first official win with Answer. Inception is their current comeback and it has charted extrmely high and continues to gain them music show wins.
Omni are Circle Media's main cash flow at this time, and are still managed very closely by Yongsun personally. Their popularity on variety and other media continues to grow despite the scandals at Circle Media. Yongsun would like to keep it that way.
