Seventeen has renewed all 13 members’ contracts with Pledis Entertainment, with the exception of members currently serving in the military who will sign after completion of service, marking a full-group renewal.

The renewal confirms Seventeen’s original lineup remains intact, reinforcing stability and the group’s self-produced identity since their 2015 debut.

The renewal is framed as part of a broader plan to grow SEVENTEEN’s global presence while nurturing unit and solo projects.

In parallel, The8 and Vernon’s duo V8 has a tour planned, and Dino is slated to release a solo album on August 3.

This contract renewal follows a prior renewal in 2021, which came about a year before the end of their original seven-year term.

Dino’s solo project release on August 3 and the June 29 release of V8 by The8 and Vernon highlight ongoing individual activities within the group.

Over more than a decade, SEVENTEEN has built a reputation for self-produced music and expanded globally, including unit and solo efforts like The8 and Vernon’s V8 activity.

reporting on the news comes from Cho Yong-jun of JoongAng Ilbo, with the timing aligned to the press release.

Seungkwan is reported to be taking on a separate drama project, illustrating ongoing member activities outside group commitments.

The announcement reiterates SEVENTEEN’s self-produced identity and their standing as one of K-pop’s most successful acts since 2015.

Pledis commits to continuing comprehensive support for SEVENTEEN, including group, unit, and solo activities, and aims to expand the group’s global reach.

The agency emphasizes ongoing support to enable full 13-member activities again in the future and to sustain each member’s strengths.
