All Seventeen members renew contracts with Pledis

Seventeen is staying with Pledis Entertainment.

On Weverse, the agency announced that all 13 members of the K-pop group have agreed to renew their contracts for the second time.

“We are delighted to once again announce our continued journey with all thirteen members. The contract renewal process has been completed for all members with the exception of those currently carrying out their military service, and the remaining members will be completing the process in alignment with their respective military service conditions,” the statement said.

Pledis also thanked the members for their continued trust in the company.

“It is an honor to be able to start another new chapter together. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the members for their continued trust in and alignment with our vision. We are also deeply grateful to CARATs, who have always stood as a steadfast pillar of support for SEVENTEEN.”

According to Pledis, it will continue to provide strategic support for Seventeen’s group, unit, and individual activities while preparing for the members' eventual return as a complete 13-member group after they finish their mandatory military service.

“We will continue to do our best in preparation for the successful resumption of full-group activities,” it said. “We ask for your continued interest and support for SEVENTEEN as they continue their journey toward eternity.”

Currently, Wonwoo, Hoshi, and Woozi are serving in the military.

Last month, Jeonghan officially completed his mandatory military service.

In March, Seventeen brought their “New” world tour to the Philippines.

Seventeen debuted in 2015 and first renewed their contracts with Pledis in early 2021. — Carby Basina/LA, GMA News
