All members of South Korean group WINNER are celebrating their 7th anniversary and have renewed their contracts with YG Entertainment.
On August 18, YG Entertainment announced that they had agreed to a five-year contract renewal with all WINNER members.
Winner appeared on the survival program 'WIN: Who Is Next', which aired in 2013, and won the team name, 'WINNER'. After a solid preparation period, members made a debut with first full-length album '2014 S/S'. 
Starting with 'Empty', 'BABY BABY', 'REALLY REALLY', 'LOVE ME LOVE ME', 'EVERYDAY', 'MILLIONS', 'AH YEAH', 'Moxibustion', and 'REMEMBER' have been released since their debut. All of the album's title songs were ranked number 1 in domestic and foreign music charts.
The WINNER members decided their course early in order to repay the love of their fans. In celebration of the 7th anniversary of their debut on the 17th, they agreed to renew their contract after a long time at YG's new headquarters in Hapjeong-dong, Seoul.
With this, WINNER will continue a more stable and strong musical partnership with YG. As WINNER has always been well-received by the public and critics with high-quality music and new attempts, fans are looking forward to their future activities.
Currently, members Kim Jin-woo and Lee Seung-hoon are performing their military duties, so they are taking a short break from team activities. Kang Seung-yoon and Song Min-ho are currently active in various fields such as acting, entertainment, and art, as well as solo album activities, respectively.
