“After 10 years, I want to dive into a more concrete version of myself,” he wrote, adding that his fellow NCT members had offered their encouragement and support. “I will always root for and love NCT.”
Mark debuted in 2016 as part of NCT U and has since been active across multiple sub-units, including NCT 127 and NCT Dream. He also released his first solo album, The Firstfruit, last year.
SM Entertainment thanked him for “10 years of meaningful work together” and said it would support his next chapter outside the company.
NCT 127 will now continue as a seven-member group comprising Johnny, Taeyong, Yuta, Doyoung, Jaehyun, Jungwoo and Haechan, while NCT Dream will move forward with six members: Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle and Jisung.
The agency also expressed its commitment to supporting the remaining members and thanked fans for their continued support of NCT.
