Not only are two of the “Big 4” firms involved, which has astonished fans, but Woojin’s debut might be his huge comeback after a tumultuous path after Stray Kids, thus the label move is even more shocking.
In 2017, Woojin joined JYP Entertainment’s Stray Kids, which launched his K-Pop career. Woojin was an integral part of the band’s success as lead singer and the eldest member. He helped create the band’s distinctive sound and fostered strong group chemistry.

Nevertheless, Woojin’s exclusive contract was terminated in late 2019 when JYP Entertainment announced his departure from the group citing personal circumstances. This was a surprising change in Woojin’s career trajectory, and the revelation stunned and devastated supporters.
In the years after he left, Woojin had a turbulent life. An anonymous Twitter user claimed to have encountered him at a Seoul pub in 2020, leading to claims of s*xual assault against him. The user asserted that they encountered Woojin during the coronavirus pandemic and that despite their numerous protests, Woojin attempted to touch them inappropriately without their consent.
Woojin fans are protecting Kim Woojin despite the controversy and taking a stand for him so adorable.
Much love to people putting Woojin’s name in the title, recognizing his hard work during all these years!
He is not debuting, He already has a solo career: Two albums and a world tour, baby! https://t.co/TlkgolWblJ
