There is a jinx in the K-pop industry for idol groups to disband after seven years, after the contract ends with their initial agency. With the members gaining fame throughout their promotion, many idol group members go their separate ways signing with other agencies.

To prevent complications with future works and other various reasons, many idol groups declare their disbandment once the members leave the initial agency and sign with different labels. However, there are times that the idol group remains together despite the members belonging to other companies. These groups even get back together to release music and albums, keeping their loyalty to one another and their fans.

So here are some of the groups that have not officially disbanded but have members belonging to other record companies.
