Why Did Jackson Wang Leave GOT7?

Hong Kong rapper and singer, Jackson Wang, had pulled out of GOT7 due to health concerns and conflicting schedules.

The GOT7 members agreed on staying together, but they disagreed on the choice of their agency. After multiple discussions with the company, they decided to part ways.

On 29 April 2016, Got7 held their first concert in Seoul, where Wang performed his self-composed songs “I Love It” and “WOLO (We Only Live Once)” with his group members Yugyeom and BamBam.

He is the founder of the record label Team Wang, and is the creative director and lead designer for the fashion brand Team Wang Design.

He is active in mainland China as a solo artist and television host. He is a member of the South Korean boy group Got7, and also a member of the Chinese hip hop group Panthepack.

In August 2021, Wang announced hip hop group Panthepack under his label Team Wang, consisting of himself as one of the members, along with rapper Ice, J.Sheon, and Karencici.

Their single “Buzz” was released on August 28, 2021, followed by their 10-track debut album, The Pack, in September 2021.
