Gongchan Leaves WM Entertainment After 13 Years

On August 21, WM Entertainment announced that Gongchan’s individual management contract with the agency had ended on June 30, 2024. This marks the end of a significant chapter in Gongchan’s career, as he has been with WM Entertainment since his debut with B1A4 in 2011.

Despite the conclusion of his solo contract, fans of B1A4 can rest assured that Gongchan will continue his activities with the group under WM Entertainment’s management. This means that while his individual career may take a new direction, his commitment to B1A4 remains strong.

“After extensive and thoughtful discussions with B1A4’s Gongchan, we have decided to conclude our individual management contract with him as of June 30, 2024. However, we will continue to manage his group activities with B1A4 (CNU, Sandeul, and Gongchan),” the agency’s statement read.

We would like to express our gratitude to Gongchan for the trust and collaboration we’ve shared over the past 13 years. We also sincerely thank the fans who have continuously loved and supported Gongchan,” they added. “As always, we will continue to support Gongchan in his future endeavors and remain committed to do our best to support B1A4’s activities.”

“We kindly ask for your continued support and interest in Gongchan’s future projects and B1A4’s group activities,” it concluded.

Gongchan is one of the three remaining active members of B1A4, along with CNU and Sandeul. The group originally debuted as a five-member band in 2011, but experienced significant changes in 2018 when Jinyoung and Baro left the agency. Following their departure, WM Entertainment confirmed that B1A4 would continue as a trio, with CNU, Sandeul, and Gongchan carrying the torch.

As Gongchan navigates this new phase in his career, fans are eagerly anticipating his future projects, both as a member of B1A4 and in any solo endeavors he may pursue.
