NewJeans Fandom’s Support for ADOR: Sending Protect Trucks to HYBE

On May 16, a post was published on the Korean forum “theqoo”discussing NewJeans fandom’s protest trucks sent to HYBE.

According to the topic, there were 2 trucks displaying different messages that accused HYBE of targeting and disrespecting NewJeans. The messages specifically stated, “HYBE should show respect towards ADOR, NewJeans, and K-pop”, “Stop using the artists for media manipulation. Put an end to your unethical actions”, “Do you honestly believe we are unaware of HYBE’s media tactics and smear campaigns?”, “Are you trying to fool us by claiming to protect the artists?”, “NewJeans sold out Tokyo Dome only to be betrayed. Who is the real perpetrator here?”, “Please immediately stop the malicious media tactics that are damaging NewJeans’ reputation”.

According to netizens, the fandom’s actions towards the trucks may further escalate HYBE’s actions against NewJeans. Despite this, a significant number of people support the fans, arguing that HYBE has gone too far.

Here are a few remarks from internet users:

I’m just worried that HYBE would treat NewJeans worse after this…
NewJeans and ADOR, everyone is cheering for you. HYBE needs to come to their sense
NewJeans and fans, please stay strong
It was Haerin’s birthday and there was no comeback promotion at all for NewJeans, HYBE is truly treating NewJeans like sh*t
The messages are thoughtfully selected. Keep up the good work, NewJeans!
