In recent years, even teams that made their debut around the same time have not overcome the Seven Year Curse. In 2016 and 2017, prominent groups at that time such as SISTAR, Rainbow, and 4Minute were disbanded and has signed to different agencies, while some members of B1A4, Infinite, and Block B also said goodbye to the team.
However, idol groups have become more and more popular, and there have been cases where they have to protect them in various ways. One case is that the member does not leave the team even if they leave their agency, such as Ok Taecyeon, a member of 2PM, who announced that he signed with his new agency 51K but will continue his 2PM activities under the management of JYPE.
