I talked a lot with Jinyoung hyung and Wook hyung, and they always told me that I was being protected under the big umbrella that is JYP. But to me, the umbrella felt like it was blocking my view of the world, so I thought, ‘I want to go out and get rained on,’ and I left. But the rain was so harsh. So, so harsh. Although you’re free, it also means you are responsible for the outcome of your choices. I have to take responsibility for it. Even now, I still call Jinyoung hyung or the CEO and tell them I am thankful.

As a result, fans praised him for his honesty and were proud of how far he had come.
God knows jype wasn’t the best company to these boys but it takes maturity to acknowledge that yeah not being in a big 3 company anymore does have disadvantages https://t.co/iYwDUrdjiq

LMAO why’s he so funny😭😂
But he’s right tho! People just say “Pull a #Got7 ” as if it’s easy! He shed blood, sweat, tears for him and the group to be standing where they are! Plus, not all are as mannered, humble & retrospective to value their relationships with their ex co! https://t.co/ntVP8pxvb2

The rain was harsh. But it was worth it. They all chose leaving that company. It says all. They voted for freedom. For growing as musician and as a person.
And they do an excellent job.
Look at Jaebeom now. After hardworking years he is independent. https://t.co/nsSbbYc7Mc
