, has entered a new phase, with members HAERIN and HYEIN suddenly announcing their return to ADOR.
ADOR has announced that it will be releasing the girl group "New Jean," which has been involved in an exclusive contract dispute.
On the 12th, Naeun announced that HAERIN and HYEIN, members of "S," have expressed their intention to return to the management office and continue working together.
In a statement released on the same day, ADOR said, "After careful consideration with their families and sufficient discussions with our company, the two members have decided to respect the court's decision and leave their jobs exclusively.
"We have decided to abide by the contract," he explained. "ADOR will do our best to ensure that HAERIN and HYEIN can continue their entertainment activities smoothly. We would like to thank all our fans for their continued support."
We ask for your warm support and respectfully ask that you refrain from speculating about the members."
Prior to this, NewJeans announced in November last year that it had terminated its contract due to ADOR's violation of the exclusive contract.
"NewJeans" demanded the return of ADOR's CEO Min Hee Jinformer, who was dismissed due to a dispute with HYBE.
However, this was not accepted, so they made this choice. After that, they also announced that they would use "NJZ" as their new group name.
ADOR then filed a lawsuit in court to have the exclusive contract confirmed as valid, claiming that its contract with NewJeans was still valid.
The court then issued a provisional injunction in favor of ADOR, blocking the path for the members of "NewJeans" to continue their independent activities.
It was reported that Min Former, CEO of the group, had established a new entertainment agency, "ooak Co., Ltd.", and various speculations were raised regarding the future activities of the members of "New Jeans."
On the 30th of last month, the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the first instance of a lawsuit brought by ADOR against a member of "NewJeans" to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract.
Up until now, "NewJeans" has been facing several issues: △ A production vacuum due to the dismissal of CEO Min Former △ Remarks by HYBE's PR representative disparaging the success of "NewJeans" △
BELIFT LAB's "ILLIT" attempts to undermine and replace the uniqueness of "NewJeans" △
Allegations of bullying by ILLIT's manager against member HANNI
Relative devaluation due to kicking down HYBE's album △ Music that states "Just throw away New (Jeans) and build a new framework"
They have claimed that the case of creating an industry report was a serious violation of the obligations under the exclusive contract. In addition, they have also argued that the company interfered with the promotion of HYBE's "New Jeans."
△ HYBE's Chairman Bang Si Hyuk's ignorance of the members' greetings △ The failure to communicate and obstruct the Apple collaboration fairy and brand ambassadors is a sign of a broken relationship of trust.
However, the court found that the evidence presented did not sufficiently prove that the plaintiff breached a material obligation under the exclusive contract, as NewJeans claimed.
Regarding the claim that the trust relationship between NewJeans and ADOR had been broken and that the contract could not be maintained, the court ruled that "the reasons for the breakdown of trust claimed by the defendants are
The court also stated that "maintaining the exclusive contract in this case would force the defendant into exclusive activities against his free will and would violate his personal rights."
After the first trial's ruling, the members of "NewJeans" immediately announced their intention to appeal, and ADOR welcomed the court's decision and stated that they would wait for the return of the lawsuit.
In response to this, ADOR stated, "As we made clear during the trial, we have made preparations for activities such as the release of the full album ('New Jeans').
We have completed preparations and are on standby. We will do our best to discuss with the artist so that he can return to his former role for fans."
As a result, HAERIN and HYEIN agreed to ADOR's "standby." As a result, NewJeans was forced to resign from the three members who were still in the Exclusive Contract dispute.
The group split into two factions: MINJI, HANNI, and DANIELLE, and the two who stopped the conflict (HAERIN and HYEIN).
The choice of LLE is also attracting attention. In the case of the similar group Fifty Fifty, three of the four members, Sena, Xia, and Alan, ended up joining the management office ATT.
After parting ways with RAKT, Kina returned alone and continues to work with the newly joined members.
