ADOR Responds to NewJeans’ Formal Notice
On November 14, ADOR, a subsidiary of the entertainment powerhouse HYBE, issued a statement to Newsen following a notice of certification received from NewJeans. The label emphasized its commitment to carefully review the specific issues raised and expressed determination to resolve them effectively, stating, “We will do our utmost to address these matters wisely and continue to work closely with our artists.”
Clarification on Investment Rumors
In light of inquiries concerning alleged investments from a publicly traded company, known as Company D, into NewJeans and its leader, Min Hee-jin, ADOR reiterated that these claims lack validity. Specifically, Min Hee-jin addressed the rumors, asserting that any allegations involving meetings with Company D or the involvement of NewJeans members’ family members are entirely fabricated.
NewJeans Raises Concerns About Contract Violations
Earlier, on November 13, NewJeans formally notified ADOR regarding perceived breaches of contract, threatening termination if the issues weren’t addressed within a two-week timeframe. The group’s demands included:
- An apology from a manager for disrespectful remarks towards member Hanni
- Removal of unauthorized images and videos
- An inquiry into damages stemming from alleged “album pushouts”
- Resolution of a dispute with music video director Shin Woo-seok
NewJeans also emphasized their disconnection from Company D, vowing to take strong action against anyone propagating false information regarding their families.
Min Hee-jin Addresses Speculations
On November 5, Min Hee-jin had previously addressed the ongoing speculation in an email to reporters. She stated, “I’m compelled to clarify my position on the baseless rumors circulating about me. Reports from the investment sector suggesting that I am ‘set to receive investment from someone’ or ‘enter into a contract with someone’ are completely untrue.”
Min continued, explaining her need to issue this statement was to prevent any potential harm caused by these unfounded claims, requesting public understanding and patience.
Company D’s Board Meeting Updates
Company D had intended to hold an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting on October 8 to elect new board directors, featuring five nominees, which notably included Hyein’s uncle. However, this meeting was postponed twice. On November 7, the company announced an updated notice via the Financial Supervisory Service’s electronic disclosure system, revealing seven new board nominees while excluding the original candidates.
Official Statement from ADOR
“Hello, this is ADOR.
With the numerous inquiries from reporters, we would like to clarify the following.
Regarding the notice of certification, we received it this morning and are reviewing it to understand the specific requests. We will do our best to resolve matters wisely and continue working closely with our artists.
As for questions regarding the listed company, Min Hee-jin has reaffirmed that rumors regarding any involvement of NewJeans members’ relatives or meetings with this company are unfounded.”
