After a long legal dispute with HYBE, former ADOR CEO Min HeeJin has resigned from her position as an internal director, severing ties with HYBE. On November 20, Min HeeJin announced in an official statement, “Today I resign from the position of internal director at ADOR,” declaring her intention to terminate the shareholder agreement with HYBE and hold them legally accountable.
Since April, a conflict with HYBE had persisted, and despite Min’s efforts to restore ADOR to its original state, she decided further efforts were futile as HYBE showed no sign of admitting fault or initiating change. She expressed a strong will, stating, “I don’t want to settle in a distorted organization driven by money.”
HYBE filed a complaint against Min for breach of duty and subsequently appointed Kim JuYoung as the new CEO of ADOR. In response, Min HeeJin filed for a provisional injunction to convene a temporary shareholders’ meeting and reappoint herself as an internal director, which was dismissed.
Min claimed that HYBE ignored whistleblowers and spread false information, conducting an unjust audit. She criticized HYBE’s actions as irrational for a large corporation and emphasized that this incident will be remembered in K-pop history.
There is much anticipation for the new K-pop journey Min HeeJin will embark on. The case is not over yet, as Min plans to take legal action against the malicious forces. Readers will be closely watching Min HeeJin’s future endeavors.
