According to THE FACT's report on November 23, multiple industry insiders stated that ZICO has decided to leave Block B while other six members renewed their contract with the group's agency SEVENSEASONS.

The agency added, "As the members' enlistment is getting closer, and they would join the military at different times, each member will focus on their individual activity or as the group's sub-unit," and said, "We want to express gratitude to ZICO who has been putting his heart into Block B as the group's leader. We wish him the best of luck."

Block B made its debut in April 2011 with its first single album 'Do U Wanna B?'.

On top of that, the members also succeeded expanding their spectrum and making a name for themselves as a jack-of-all-trades with their appearance in variety shows and dramas.

Meanwhile, ZICO participated in the track 'It's You' of K-pop artist SAM KIM's first full album 'Sun and Moon' released on November 22.
