Shinhwa is a South Korean six-member boy band based in Seoul, composed of Eric Mun, Lee Min-woo, Kim Dong-wan, Shin Hye-sung, Jun Jin, and Andy Lee. Launched by SM Entertainment on March 24, 1998, the group signed with Good Entertainment in 2004 before creating their Shinhwa Company to manage their career as a band. The band struggled initially with their first album before finding commercial success with their sophomore album T.O.P.. When their contract with SM Entertainment expired in July 2003, all six members signed with Good Entertainment and assumed creative control with the release of Brand New. That same year, members began to pursue individual careers. After a four-year hiatus due to majority of the members completing their mandatory military service, the sextet established the Shinhwa Company to facilitate their group career. The release of their tenth album The Return made them the first Korean boy band to continue performing after the members' mandatory military services.

K-pop boy band launched by SM Entertainment that became the longest-running boy band in the history of K-pop. In Korean, Shinwa means myth or legend.

The group has won more than 20 Golden Disk, Mnet Asian Music, Seoul Music, Mnet 20's Choice Awards combined.
