The group Seventeen officially announced their contract renewal with Pledis Entertainment. It drew attention that all 13 members decided to renew their contracts for the second time without any departures.

Seventeen recently concluded their world tour "[NEW_] ENCORE" successfully at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. The tour featured 31 performances in 14 cities worldwide, attracting a total audience of 900,000. At the end of the concert, the members delivered a message saying, "We will continue to row together on the same boat moving forward."

Regarding the contract renewal, S.Coups stated, "We had many deep conversations among the members and decided to do it together." Seventeen cited their fandom, CARAT, as the biggest driving force behind the renewal and shared, "When a flower falls, an even stronger life is born afterward. Seventeen is the same."

The sight of Jeonghan and Wonwoo, who are currently serving in the military, cheering for the members from the audience also caught attention. Seventeen has grown as a 'self-produced idol' since their trainee days, emphasizing the synergy and stability when all 13 members are together.

Upcoming activities include Dokyeom x Seungkwan's "DxS [Sonnya-gok] ON STAGE" from the 17th to the 19th, and S.Coups x Mingyu's "CxM [DOUBLE UP] LIVE PARTY" in Kaohsiung from the 24th to the 26th.
