Speculation surrounding NewJeans has intensified after claims emerged that the group could leave their agency if a legal battle ends in Danielle‘s favor.

According to discussions sparked by a lawyer on YouTube, there are rumors that if Danielle wins a potential lawsuit, all five members might depart from ADOR and continue as a group elsewhere. Some even suggested the possibility of them joining another label such as former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin‘s Ooak Records.

Online reactions have been mixed, with many fans expressing both hope and concern. Some believe a fresh start could benefit the group, while others worry that additional legal disputes could delay their activities even further. “If they get tied up in more lawsuits, they’ll lose too much time,” one comment noted.

Others questioned whether a new agency would realistically take them in, especially given ongoing industry developments. Min Hee Jin, who has been closely associated with NewJeans’ identity, is reportedly preparing new projects, leading to further uncertainty about the group’s direction.

Several fans also urged caution, pointing out that opinions shared by lawyers online are not definitive. While legal experts may provide insight, many emphasized that the final outcome ultimately depends on the court’s ruling. “What matters most is the judge’s decision,” one user commented, while another added that even legal professionals involved may not fully predict the result.

Amid the uncertainty, some fans expressed frustration toward HYBE, calling for the situation to be resolved through proper legal channels rather than public disputes. Others voiced growing support for Min Hee Jin following her recent press appearance.

For now, the future of NewJeans remains unclear. As speculation continues, fans say the only thing they can do is support all five members and wait for an official resolution.
