Following GOT7’s departure from its former label, JYP Entertainment, Yugyeom has embarked on a distinct solo career with the hip-hop and R&B label AOMG. To date, he has produced one extended play (EP), his debut solo production “Point of View: U” in July 2021, along with two single albums, including “Take You Down” in March 2022.

Two months after the latter’s release, Yugyeom joined his fellow GOT7 members in releasing their self-titled EP, bannered by the lead single “NANANA.” This marks GOT7’s first and only musical production as a group since the members left their former company to pursue their individual solo careers.

Yugyeom participated in celebrating the group’s decade-old journey, expressing in his handwritten letter to their fans that he looks forward to showing his efforts and hard work “through my albums, stages, and actions rather than words, so please watch.”

"I really appreciate and love you with all my heart. Please know that even now and until the end of my life, you are the reason why I make music, stand on stage, practice hard, live a good life, and work hard consistently," writes @GOT7's Yugyeom. | @dnvrdelrosario #GOT7 #IGOT7… pic.twitter.com/O4YBqC2mCa
