In November 2006, it was revealed that the six former members of the boy band may regroup and release an album together. The plan was met with mixed reactions as some were skeptical that they would regain their original popularity they had had seven years ago. The probability of reunification coming to reality was blurred as it was revealed on November 4 that Lee Jae-Jin has secretly gone to the military. His representative said that he will not appear on television until he finishes his duty.

SechsKies quickly took their place in front of the camera soon after. On July 5, 1998, SechsKies did their 3rd album comeback on SBS Inki Gayo with the song "Crying Game." The second meeting of their official fan club was to be a two day inauguration held from July 12-July 13, 1998, but due to several issues, SechsKies had to delay that meeting until the end of July. Eun Ji Won, leader of SechsKies, started showing off more of his personal talent as he took part in the production of their third album. While they performed for their third album, SechsKies released their first movie. The six members starred in the movie 'Seventeen,' which opened on July 17, 1998. The soundtrack for the movie became known as SechsKies 'special album,' or 3.5 album. This album was released on October 31, 1998 and they released two songs, 'Couple' and 'Nuh Rul Boh Neh Myu,' which they performed until the end of January. On November 30, 1998, a special SechsKies photo album was released.
At the end of every year, all the major broadcasting stations in Korea come together and hold several award shows known as DaeSang Awards. After the December 18-December 31, 1998 award shows, SechsKies went home with several DaeSang awards proving that all their hard work was well worth the sacrifices SechsKies has made for their fans. SechsKies spent more of the month of January in 1999, holding concerts throughout Korea. Starting on January 4, 1999 in MokPo Gongyun and ending on January 21, 1999 in Daegu. SechsKies was now a living legend within the gayo industry, breaking the barriers of different genres of music, proving that Korean music is much more than the traditional trot music our parents once forced us to listen to.
On April 5, 1999 SechsKies released their first concert video, recorded from their largest concert to date, the Seoul Concert on February 25, 1999. They also released a concert album that went with the video on April 10, 1999. They performed a song sung by Kang Sung Hoon called "My Love" from this album. On April 18, 1999, SechsKies held a two year anniversary special official fan club meeting.
After their concert ended, SechsKies returned to the studio to create their fourth album. Released in early September 1999, SechsKies performed a song appropriately titled, "Com' Back," "Yeh Gam," and "Geu Dae Ro Mum Chu." Compared to their previous works, this album had a more input from the members of the group, several of them writing and producing tracks for it. The group did not stay in the limelight for long after the release of the fourth album, due to their imminent disbandment.
At 2pm on May 18, 2000, SechsKies held a press conference to announce their inevitable departure from the gayo scene as the group 'SechsKies.' As a few members shed tears, they explained their situation in little detail. It was rumored that Eun Ji Won and Kang Sung Hoon might form a duet under DSP, or at least stay within the entertainment world. Kim Jae Duc will stay with DSP as a dance instructor/ choreographer.Lee Jae Jin might join JaeDuc as a DSP choreographer, or he might just return to school out of the limelight along with Jang Su Won. Ko Ji Yong has expressed an interest in becoming an actor now that SechsKies has ended its era. After the press conference, they made one last music video, entitled "Thanks" which is a rare music video made after their final concert.
Eun Ji Won worked with J-Walk to create the song "My Love" in 2008.
