The B, get ready to celebrate! The Boyz have officially announced their commitment to continue group activities as a nine-member act, bringing immense relief and excitement after months of uncertainty. The beloved K-Pop group will promote under a new label structure, ensuring their future together.
The confirmed nine members, Sangyeon, Jacob, Younghoon, Hyunjae, Juyeon, Kevin, Q, Sunwoo, and Eric, have successfully completed a group contract to continue promoting as The Boyz. Preparations are now underway for their activities under a newly established label. Notably, New is not part of this group agreement.
A New Chapter Begins: The Boyz Continue as Nine
This thrilling announcement comes after a challenging period for the group. Months ago, in February, the nine members (excluding New) notified One Hundred Label of their intention to terminate exclusive contracts. This move stemmed from serious concerns over unpaid earnings and an irreparable breakdown of trust, leading to legal proceedings between the members and their former agency.
A significant turning point occurred on April 23, when a court granted the members’ request for an injunction, effectively suspending the validity of their exclusive contracts. This legal victory empowered them to pursue activities independently while the broader legal dispute continues.
Prioritizing The Group and The B
According to the group’s statement, the members’ priority was always the continuity and future of The Boyz. They deliberately secured the group’s future before finalizing any individual agency contracts, aiming to reassure The B, who have patiently endured months of worry and anticipation.
Under this innovative new arrangement, each member will have the flexibility to pursue solo activities through separate management companies, strategically chosen to best suit their individual careers. Crucially, they will work together seamlessly, ensuring the group’s activities continue through close cooperation and shared vision.
In a heartfelt press release, the members shared their unwavering determination: “From the very beginning, our determination to continue as nine members has never changed. More than anything, we wanted to share our decision first with The B (The Boyz’s fandom), who have been waiting for and worrying about our future as a group.”
They further added, “We will continue doing our best in our individual careers while also working hard to create more memories together as The Boyz. Thank you sincerely to The B for your unwavering love and support.”
Fans can look forward to more updates soon, as further details regarding The Boyz’s future group activities and schedule will be announced at a later date. The journey ahead for The Boyz as a nine-member unit promises to be filled with renewed passion and unforgettable moments for The B worldwide.
