NewJeans Updates: Hanni Returns, Minji In Talks, Danielle's ADOR ...
ADOR ended Danielle's contract due to difficulties continuing with the group, while Hanni returns and Minji remains in negotiations amid ongoing legal disputes.
- On Dec 29, ADOR announced it terminated Danielle, NewJeans member's exclusive contract, stating Hanni will rejoin while Minji remains in talks.
- The dispute began in November 2024 when members of NewJeans announced contract termination, prompting ADOR to file a December lawsuit seeking injunctions to bar independent activities until resolution.
- With appeals dismissed, the court ruled members owe one billion won per violation and approved indirect compulsory execution in May, suspending the group's activities.
- ADOR said it will pursue legal accountability for a family member of Danielle and Min Hee-jin, former ADOR CEO, alleging their role in sowing division that disrupted group activities.
- Despite a partial return by Haerin, NewJeans member, and Hyein, NewJeans member, in November, the injunction accepted by the court halted NJZ's rebranded group operations.
