Five Years In, Still Going Strong
ITZY isn’t going anywhere—except straight into their next chapter. On June 20, JYP Entertainment dropped the news that all five members of the powerhouse K-pop girl group have renewed their exclusive contracts with the label. And yes, they did it as a team.
“Ahead of their original contracts expiring early next year, all five ITZY members have signed renewals,” JYP stated via an official announcement. “Their shared commitment to grow and deliver more to fans made this possible.”
JYP Pledges Full Support
According to JYP, this isn’t just a signature-and-done situation. The agency made it crystal clear they’re going all-in to support ITZY’s evolving journey both as a group and as individual artists.
“We promise to provide full support so ITZY can continue being a global leader in K-pop,” the agency said. “We’ll back their new challenges and opportunities to ensure they continue to move hearts around the world.”
What’s Next? Fan Meets and More
ITZY, who debuted in February 2019, held their fourth solo fan meeting just yesterday at Seoul’s KBS Arena. And fans in Japan, get ready—an additional fan meet is set for October 13, where they’re expected to premiere a brand new track.
With their 7th debut anniversary on the horizon, this re-signing feels like the start of ITZY 2.0. Whether it’s genre-crossing comebacks, solo ventures, or more world tours, the group is clearly just warming up.
From Rookie Queens to Global Icons
ITZY stormed into the K-pop scene in 2019 with “DALLA DALLA,” carving out their own lane with fierce choreography and anthemic lyrics. Since then, they’ve racked up millions of fans, stacked Billboard placements, and headlined international stages. Safe to say—they’ve outgrown the “rookie” tag by miles.
So, what does seven more years of ITZY magic look like? If their energy at the recent fan meet is anything to go by, we’re in for more era-defining moments. But one thing’s clear: the girls—Yeji, Lia, Ryujin, Chaeryeong, and Yuna—are sticking together, and they’re not done making noise.
Final Thought
This kind of unity’s rare in K-pop. And as renewal season often comes with nail-biting uncertainty, ITZY’s collective re-signing is a refreshing dose of loyalty, strategy, and sisterhood. So MIDZYs, breathe easy—your queens aren’t going anywhere.
