While there are many aspects in K-pop that can contribute to a fan's happiness, the most obvious one is a group's contract renewal inside their agency.

Many artists have gone through devoting seven years on their contracts, which can lead many fans to get nervous since groups tend to deviate from their original companies after completing the initial term. Some have renewed to stay for efficient management, while others did not.

Unfortunately, this can't be helped since their stay will depend on how well an agency treats them in terms of legal matters, creative freedom, promotions, and many more. It can also include the reason of artists wanting to explore more opportunities outside their agency.

However, several fandoms are lucky enough to have their favorite K-pop groups renew all their contracts and keep their member roster.

Here are 5 K-pop groups who made their fans happy by renewing all members' contracts!
