Jackson recently released his solo single "Papillon". The song ranked first on China's QQ music chart shortly after its release. The success of his solo single later sparked a speculation that he would leave his group to make his solo debut in China.

Assuring fans that he won't be leaving the group, the Hong Kong-born star wrote on Instagram in August, "Stop asking about me leaving GOT7 my lovely people. It's not even a question, homies ride forever, it's not about a contract, it's about a relationship, a friendship, on top of all, a true family."

Meanwhile, GOT7 is gearing up to release a second Japanese mini album "Turn Up", which is set to arrive on November 15.
