However, what shocked the most were pictures of all four girls together because it marked their first group appearance without Danielle.

Danielle, meanwhile, remains out of the group following more contract disputes with ADOR. The agency has continued their lawsuit against the former NewJeans member, Min Hee Jin, and a family member.
Fans have had various reactions to the new photos, and considering the situation with Danielle, a lot of them have not been positive.
