ITZY Ryujin’s Recent Instagram Post Sparks Concern Regarding Relationship With JYP
ITZY‘s Ryujin has recently stirred up discussions among fans with her latest Instagram post, leading to speculation about the group’s future.
As ITZY approaches their seventh year since debuting in February 2019, discussions about contract renewals with JYP Entertainment are becoming more pressing. Most K-Pop fans know how critical the seventh year is in a group’s career — with many facing a “7-year jinx” where differing opinions among members can lead to disbandment.
ITZY, now in their sixth year, is at a crucial juncture where the topic of contract renewals is increasingly relevant. All members will be under scrutiny and the watchful eyes of media outlets.
As a result, Ryujin’s latest Instagram post has caught the attention of Korean media and added fuel to concerns that the group (or only Ryujin herself) isn’t on the best terms with JYP.
On August 4, Ryujin shared a series of thought-provoking photos without any captions, sparking speculation among fans. One of the images featured four human-like figures crafted from bottle caps, each holding a sharp toothpick.
Another picture showed four animal figurines accompanied by a sign that read, “We are professionals. We only move if you pay us.”
The timing and content of Ryujin’s post have caught the attention of many. Korean media outlets and netizens have begun to wonder about the current dynamics between the group and the company.
Agencies typically begin discussing renewals as artists approach their seventh year—with ITZY in their sixth, there’s little doubt such talks have already begun.
This period often brings about significant changes, and the possibility of members having differing opinions on their future can lead to the group’s disbandment or changes in lineups.
Ryujin’s cryptic post has, therefore, raised concerns among fans who are eager to see ITZY continue their successful journey.

Regardless, ITZY have promised to release an album as 5 soon — following Lia recently coming back from hiatus — and fans can’t wait to see what they have in store. We all hope to see ITZY together forever!
