Seventeen Members: All Contracts Renewed

Global K-pop sensation Seventeen has once again solidified its future, with all 13 members successfully renewing their exclusive contracts with Pledis Entertainment for an impressive second time. This significant announcement reaffirms the group’s unwavering unity and commitment to their shared journey.

The highly anticipated news was personally delivered by Seventeen’s esteemed leader, S. Coups, during the emotional final encore concert of their successful “New_” tour in Incheon on Sunday. The announcement resonated deeply with fans gathered at the momentous event.

S. Coups conveyed that this unanimous decision followed extensive and heartfelt discussions among the members, symbolizing their collective aspiration to “row hard forward together on the same ship,” a powerful metaphor for their enduring teamwork and shared vision.

While on stage with eight fellow members, S. Coups fondly noted, “It would have been even better if Hoshi and Woozi were here, too.” He also acknowledged Junghan and Wonwoo, who were supporting from the audience. These four beloved members are currently fulfilling their mandatory military service, a duty for all able-bodied South Korean men.

Having made their impactful debut in 2015, Seventeen previously announced their first successful contract renewal in 2021, showcasing their foresight and stability well before typical expiry dates. Looking ahead, the globally beloved group is set to host their largest fan meetup to date in Incheon this June, promising an unforgettable experience for their dedicated Carat fandom.
