Jackson began explaining that he plans to return to Korea to officially promote his solo activities and explained, "I'm starting to work in Korea this year. We just finished the contract with JYP Entertainment." He added that the rest of the members will also be focusing on their solo activities for the coming year.

Many fans were shocked to find out that Jackson was only preparing to make a solo comeback in South Korea this year because he was not permitted to promote solo since it was a condition in the contract with JYP Entertainment. Now that the contract has expired, Jackson has the freedom to promote his solo songs and meet with fans through his solo activities.

After hearing the podcast of Jackson, fans were ecstatic to get an update of the members and hear that they were each preparing their solo activities. Fans were also happy to hear that Jackson is preparing to release his solo work in South Korea this year.

    I don't know why all these big agencies are bad at managing. JYP does well at picking out people with good personalities, SM is good at picking out talent, YG is good at picking up talent that others looked over, but they all suck at managing.
