The UK BBC has highlighted the conflict between HYBE and former ADOR CEO Min Hee-jin

Earlier, on September 25, NewJeans’ official channel shared photos featuring only Minji, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein. In contrast, recent posts related to Hanni have focused solely on advertisements and photo shoots. As NewJeans deals with various challenges, attention is now on the group’s status as a four-member unit.

Netizens’ comments:

  • What are the kids who were chanting about Hanni leaving supposed to do? LOL
  • Hanni really sent that! LOL
  • So sweet, ㅠㅠ Hanni, you’re so cute.
  • The baby even has a cute way of speaking.
  • Is this fan art? I thought Hanni drew it! LOL, so cute.
  • Of course, sorry about that! LOL, ah, G.O.
  • What? Is Hanni being persecuted for saying ‘ignore it’? Oh my.
  • It seems like she posted it intentionally because of the attention-seeking articles. LOL, Hanni, G.O.

Some fans believe that Hanni has chosen Min Hee Jin’s side and will leave HYBE. However, amid the escalating conflict between Min Hee Jin and HYBE, it’s uncertain what will happen to NewJeans.

On the other hand, On the 26th, the BBC reported that NewJeans’ future is uncertain after expressing dissatisfaction with HYBE. Two weeks ago, they held a YouTube live broadcast discussing grievances against HYBE and the dismissal of producer Min Hee-jin. Following this, they issued an ultimatum for Min Hee-jin’s reinstatement by September 25, but HYBE refused, leaving their next steps unclear.

The BBC speculated on their unwillingness to continue under the current contract, while Min Hee-jin indicated plans for a world tour. If NewJeans terminate their contract, the penalty could reach around 500 billion won.
