To further keep Ahgases at ease, the members of GOT7 have recently talked about the disbandment rumors and more as they were featured in interviews with W Korea's June issue.
Jay B has been very hands-on to make sure the members of GOT7 could continue promoting seamlessly. The GOT7 leader explained why he had to do what he had to do to keep GOT7 whole.
"I gained a lot through GOT7. I felt that if we just separated and continued with our individual activities, we would have wasted the 7 years that we've spent under this name. I kept thinking to myself, 'I can't let go of this rope. I shouldn't let go.'," GOT7's Jay B revealed.
Jay B also talked about working on solo projects. For the GOT7's leader, he feels it is important to continue making a comeback as GOT7 although the members have solo careers.
Jinyoung then went on to talk about how he feels GOT7 can last forever.
"Every team has a different driving force that keeps it going for a long time. I think for GOT7, it's [our mentality of] 'the next thing that (they) want to do.' I've felt it while watching 2PM sunbaenims since I was young. 'How can they be so close to each other and be together for such a long time? They are very 'solid.' I think it was possible because Hyungs 'care.'," GOT7's Jinyoung shared.
Jinyoung also realized that trials are normal. The GOT7 member explained that it will never be the end.
GOT7's resident spoiler king went on to call out haters, denounce disbandment rumors, and note that he always proudly declares himself as a member of GOT7.
"I have nothing to hide. That's why to those people who said, 'GOT7 said they didn't disband, realistically can they gather again as seven?' I want to tell them, 'Don't carelessly judge us as you please and pretend like you are smart. Do you know that? When we go anywhere, when we greet people, we always say GOT7 before saying our names. I am GOT7 BamBam, like this.'," GOT7's BamBam noted.
BamBam added that though the foreign GOT7 members could leave Korea for a while, they will still return to GOT7 without a problem.

"If we just say, 'GOT7 is not disbanded,' people may not know it well. So we want to show everyone with this comeback," GOT7's Mark Tuan remarked.
Furthermore, Mark Tuan also talked about the mandatory military enlistment for the Korean GOT7 members.
Youngjae went on to add that even though GOT7 will not have a comeback in a long time, the K-Pop boy group will not disband.
GOT7's Youngjae explained, "It may take a while for the next GOT7 album to come out after this one, but there'll be no such thing as disbandment. We already decided to do it, so we have to go until the end, right?"
The members of GOT7 are really unbothered regarding the rumors of their disbandment.
