Jackson has been so active with his solo activities along with the group activities with GOT7. Knowing that he is such a successful musician in JYP Entertainment, you must be thinking that he would continue his career in that agency, especially since JYP Entertainment is one of the biggest K-pop agencies in Korea. However, after its debut in 2014, GOT7’s contract ended on January 2021. Rumors of whether the group would be continuing their contract or not floated around the Internet for months before.

And, it was finally announced in January 11, 2021, that GOT7 will not continue its activities with JYP Entertainment. With this info, some people thought that GOT7 might be disbanding, especially with the rumors of other companies scouting GOT7’s members individually. However, Jackson Wang and the other members in GOT7 made sure fans knew they are not going anywhere. Even though they are in different companies, the seven members will find a way to remain as a group later. For now, the members will explore their music and careers separately. Regarding this issue, truths were revealed little by little. It turned out that JYP Entertainment would only sign a new contract with 5 members of GOT7. And, some fans were sure that it was Jinyoung and Jackson who were being cut since they had more solo activities and profits outside the company.
