Yonhap News reported that on November 13, 2024, NewJeans issued a certificate of contents to ADOR. The document stated that if the company fails to address their requests, the group would terminate their exclusive contract.
Industry sources revealed that NewJeans sent the certificate using their legal names—Kim Minji, Hanni Pham, Danielle Marsh, Kang Haerin, and Lee Hyein—and demanded that ADOR respond to their requests, which were based on alleged violations of their exclusive contract. ADOR was given 14 days to resolve the issue upon receiving the document.
ADOR has since responded to the news. A company official gave a statement to JoyNews24 on the evening of November 13, 2024.
We have nothing to say, given that we have yet to receive the certificate of contents sent by NewJeans’ side.
