when you're taken on as a trainee, do you sign the contract then, or when you're confirmed to debut? Or are there multiple contracts w/different time periods and clauses?

There are two types of trainee contracts: exclusive and basic.
Exclusive means you are 100% under YG and he will try to debut you. BI, Bobby, KSY, Jennie Kim, AKMU, and Lee Hi and Jinhwan where under this during the pre debut stage. You can not go to any other agency unless giving permission to break contract.
THen you have your regular basic contract where they will train you but you can leave at any time whatsoever. This would be those hidden trainees no one knows about.
however, benefit of being under an exclusive contract means you get all the predebut activities etc. If YG has any plans to debut you, you move up to exclusive contract based on what I heard.
