According to reports from Korean media, Min Hee Jin refused HYBE’s request for a meeting with their board of directors. Sources revealed that Min Hee Jin argued that HYBE’s demand for a new CEO and board of directors for ADOR was unlawful.

Min Hee Jin declined the meeting as she believed that the audited board of directors’ convention was in violation of the law and exceeded HYBE’s legal boundaries.

“The CEO shared that the rights to convene a board of directors meeting were limited to the scope and parameters of an audit, making their request to hold such a meeting illegal. As a result, the decision was made not to proceed with convening a meeting with the board.”

In the event of a cancellation, HYBE had already submitted a request to the court on April 25 to hold a meeting with shareholders. News sources also stated that these types of decisions typically take 8 to 9 weeks to be finalized.

If the meeting is granted approval, the officials will strive to remove Min Hee Jin from her position as CEO of ADOR and appoint a new board of directors for the label.

According to HYBE’s statement, the auditor has the power to audit the directors’ performance and call for a board meeting, as stated in the company’s articles of association. Therefore, HYBE is unable to understand why Min Hee Hin is unwilling to comply.
