This research aims to analyze the business contracts between SM Entertainment and the affiliation companies to create business collaboration in the form of entry mode toward different Asian countries and to evaluate SM Entertainment's success in deploying their K-Pop's commodification in Asia. This research applied the theory of Cultural Technology, Entry Mode and Cross-Country Business Contracts with a qualitative descriptive method. The results showed that implementing cross-country business contracts is doing a number in K-Pop’s expansion across Asia by modifying the business contracts suitable for the SM Entertainment and the target market to enter the Asian Market.
