On April 22, SPOTV News revealed that Simon Dominic decided to terminate his exclusive contract with AOMG. An official from AOMG responded to the report, stating that Simon Dominic and AOMG mutually agreed in February 2024 to terminate the artist's contract. They are presently in the process of finalizing the details.

They added that the finalization process is still ongoing, and until then, both AOMG and Simon Dominic will continue their activities diligently as the agency and its artist. Simon Dominic has played a crucial role in AOMG since joining the label in 2014, initially serving as co-CEO alongside Jay Park until 2018. Subsequently, he transitioned back to being an artist under the label. Jay Park established the company in 2013, with Simon D recruited as the co-CEO in 2014. This year marks his remarkable 10-year journey with the company.

After Jay Park's departure from AOMG to pursue More Vision, DJ Pumkin, who succeeded Jay Park as CEO, also resigned. This development comes in the wake of the recent exits of fellow AOMG artists Gray, Woo Won Jae, Lee Hi, and GooseBumps, who parted ways with the label earlier in March. Simon Dominic's departure marks the latest exit from AOMG.
