Previously, the group announced the end of their exclusive contract with Pledis Entertainment last year.
With the end of their contracts, fans wondered what the future was for fromis_9 and whether they would be able to keep their name.
Recently, it seemed that the members had difficulties securing the rights to their group name.
However, with the new teaser photos with the group name, netizens were happy to see that they had succeeded in keeping the name.

- “I guess they can keep the trademarks to the name even if it’s not with all the members. This is the first time seeing something like this. Congrats!”
- “Thank goodness!”
- “How can they keep the name when only five members moved agencies?”
- “As they should! HYBE also received the name too..”
Congrats to the girls!
