What is the jinx in "The Devil's Seven Years"?
"It's about seven years since the debut, and it's likely that the group will be disbanded or the members will be left behind.」This jinx unique to the K-POP community"The Devil's Seven Years of Jinx"I call it💡
K-POP idols signed an exclusive contract with their agency when they debuted and are engaged in entertainment activities.🎤
And the timing of "7th year of debut" is when many K-POP idols will be expiring their first contract.💡
At this time, attention is focused on"Will the contract with your agency end or continue?"This is an individual choice for idols.😳
If there are members in the group who choose to end the contract, this could lead to the disbandment of the group or the withdrawal of members...😢
This is why it is more likely that a group will break up or members will be left in their seventh year of debut.😂
The Korean Fair Trade Commission announced the "Seven Years of Devil" of the K-POP Group."Standard exclusive contract for popular culture and artists (centered by singers)"That's related📚
According to Article 3, Paragraph 2 of the "Standard Exclusive Contract for Popular Culture and Artists (Predominant Singers)",The exclusive contract period between the artist and the agency cannot exceed seven years.It is said to be📝
Therefore,Most K-POP idols have a "7-year" exclusive contract period with their agency, the largest standard exclusive contract.It's like that ⌛
As the end date of your exclusive contract period approaches,The idols are against their agency"Contract ends"mosquito"Re-contract"You can choose😌
-
✅In the case of "contract termination"
▷ Leaves agency → Transfers to new agency / Independent -
✅In the case of a "re-contract"
▷Remaining at his agency
The group's future will be determined by the individual choice of idols...❕
These three patterns are thought to occur in the seventh year of the demon 🤔👇
- All members will "re-sign"
- A pattern in which some members end their contract
- All members end their contract
Let's take a closer look at what happens to group activities in each pattern.✊✨
All members will "re-sign"
The first possible pattern is that all members will "re-sign"🌷
If this pattern,Basically, group activities continue🎉
This is the pattern that fans want the most...!
In the past, it was a very rare choice for all members to re-sign with their agency.😢
However, recently, it has been increasingly increasing the number of cases where all members have re-signed their agencies after overcoming this "7 Years of Demons."👏✨
A pattern in which some members end their contract
The second possibility is that some members will "end contracts."⚡
In this pattern,The group itself is disbandedIf there are,
Members who have ended their contract will withdraw and only members who have re-signed will continue their group activities.The case too🙌
Although the group survives, there is little group activity,"The de facto disbandment"It's not uncommon for that to happen 🥺
However, the trend seems to have changed a little recently.😌💕
More and more idols are choosing to "participate in group activities even if they transfer their agency" and are reassuring their fans.💖
Even if the members are a different agency, they can now see groups that have overcome the seven years of devils.👀❤
All members end their contract
The third possibility is that all members will "end contracts."😢
In this case, most of the cases are disbanded.😭
Even if the disbandment is not officially announced, it may end up in a "de facto disbandment" situation where there are very few group activities 🤦♀️
However, there are some groups who continue to work even after all members have ended their contracts and transfer to another agency.🎉
- 🎉Groups that are active even if all of them "contracts are terminated" (example)🎉
- ✅iKON
▷Everyone has moved from YG Entertainment to 173 Entertainment - ✅GOT7
