ADOR recently made a statement on November 27, 2024, siding with NewJeans’ Hanni in her claims against a BELIFT LAB staff. She had previously alleged that a staff member had instructed other artists to ignore her.
The statement defended Hanni.
BELIFT LAB’s claims are completely different from NewJeans Hanni’s statement. Hanni clearly remembers a member of BELIFT LAB saying something to the effect of ‘Ignore her’ or ‘Ignore her and pass by’ on May 27, 2024.
Also, it is too harsh of a standard to expect the victim to remember the entire situation for something that happened in such a short period of time. ADOR and its members completely trust our artist’s words and are truly sad about the damage Hanni has suffered.
We hope that BELIFT LAB will not take the damage she has suffered lightly and show mutual respect and a sincere attitude so that unnecessary controversies regarding ADOR artists will not continue.

Following the statement, Hanni changed her status message on Phoning. She kept it simple with emoticon, seemingly indicating some form of displeasure.
Although she makes no direct reference to the statement, the timing caused netizens to link the two together. They showed their support for the star by commenting with the same emoji.
