Will Kim Yugyeom leave GOT7? It is one of the most asked questions in the K-Pop world right now.
Before GOT7 members renew their contract, many controversial debates are surging on social media. The fans are speculating that K-pop superstar Yuhyeom and Bambam might leave the frontline of GOT7, alongside other members.
As indicated by meaww.com, GOT7 members are in the spotlight for their preceding contract renewal with JYP Entertainment, which is expected after January 2021.
Meanwhile, SPO TV News hinted that GOT7's Yugyeom would probably join AOMG, Jay Park's Hip-bounce based agency, reports soompi.com.

The source further mentioned that another member of GOT7, Jinyoung, is in terms with BH Entertainment for an exclusive contract signing.
However, alongside Yugyeom and Jinyoung, K-pop fans predict that Thai rapper Bambam will also probably leaves JYP.
After GOT7's Jinyoung and Yugyeom discuss their contract signing with different agencies, the public is curious about JYP Entertainment's fate. The band's contract signing will lapse on its seventh commemoration with JYP this month.
If GOT7 members leave JYP Entertainment, which is one of the biggest entertainment moguls of South Korea, the entertainment agency may lose a major chunk of its market dominance overseas.
JYP was the one who was presenting the multinational group of seven global talented K-pop superstars, GOT7, since January 2014.
What Is The Fate Of GOT7? Will They Get Disband in 2021?
GOT7 is one of the K-pop groups consisting of seven members, JB, Mark, Jackson, Jinyoung, Youngjae, BamBam, and Yugyeom. The band made its debut with JYP Entertainment in January 2014.
Among the seven members, Mark and Bambam, were scouted and picked by JYP from the USA and Thailand, respectively. Jackson is a Hong Kong-based vocalist, while the other members joined after going through different tryouts in South Korea.
The Fair Trade Commission introduced in 2009 that the idol groups must commonly sign a seven-year exclusive contract only after their debut, according to kpopstarz.com.
While there are ongoing rumors that GOT7 might get disband, neither JYP Entertainment nor the group members have confirmed the bands' fate. JYP has released an official statement that they are doing their best to re-sign all the members.
As per soompi.com, JYP told a Korean news publication Newsen, 'We are still discussing various possibilities regarding GOT7’s contracts, and we will inform you when we are ready.'
But on the other hand, the head of JYP Entertainment, J.Y. Park, has recently unfollowed BamBam, Mark, and Jinyoung from Instagram. The fate of GOT7 signing with JYP is in question since Park has also unfollowed the official GOT7 account. He had never followed the leader of GOT7, JB, in the first place.
Previously in May 2019, GOT7 leader JB mentioned in an interview that the band is looking forward to continuing as the seven members. So, it means that even if JYP might not renew their contract, we might have a hope to see GOT7 in the K-Pop industry in 2021.
