Where would Chosun even report on this rubbish if it was completely untrue in every way. I'm always confused about these press outlets and their ability to just make shit up.

Has everyone not learned by now to not trust a single word reported by Chosun? They're HYBE's top lapdog in the media. Every NJZ article is speculative defamation

Hello. We are the parents of the members. The reports from some media outlets claiming that there is a division among the members’ parents are completely untrue. We are making this statement to correct any misunderstandings.
All five members have a firm stance that they cannot return to HYBE, and this decision was made after thorough discussions with their respective families. From the beginning, the members promised that they would not proceed with any legal action unless all five of them agreed. This demonstrates their deep trust and unity.
Even now, the members remain steadfast in their decision, and we, as their parents, fully respect and unwaveringly support their choices. Despite the difficult circumstances, the five members frequently meet and maintain their strong friendship. Likewise, we parents have also strengthened our bond through regular communication during these challenging times.
It is deeply disappointing and frustrating to see baseless rumors about family discord or a member leaving being published in the media. It almost feels as if someone is deliberately trying to create division. At first, we felt these rumors were not worth responding to. However, since specific members’ names have now been mentioned, we have decided to make our position clear.
The rumors regarding member Haerin are entirely false. Haerin and her parents are completely aligned in their stance, and any speculation about their family matters is also untrue. Due to these unfounded and one-sided speculations, the member and her family are experiencing extreme emotional distress.
The process of adjusting parental authority out of respect for a minor’s wishes was a matter concerning a different member. In that case, both the child and the mother were firm in their decision, so we kindly ask that you refrain from making assumptions about their family affairs as well.
We want to make it absolutely clear that all famil

I don't know how you can be a solo stan, in any group, not just NJZ. In watching content of your fave, you're bound to get to know their teammates too

It could make sense in a group like blackpink because yg curated it by having far fewer interactions between them than is usual

hollow sorrel

is it weird that I always thought the members won’t do any solos until their contract (the 7 year one) ends

like mhj loves switching up things and she also mentioned having a 7 year plan for NewJeans, but for some reason I always got the vibe that they won’t do solos

(I know Danielle did Little Mermaid, but I meant like promoting solo songs while they are still working as a group)

They are gonna appeal, wait for it

wait a few months (or years)

If they lose that, then either a hiatus until contract runs out or a return to ador, perhaps with some guarantees

errant shale
#

What a horrible timing to know newjeans, I just started listening in the middle of all this...

copper jetty
#

Girls already said there's no way they're returning so they'll probably just run the contract or pay penalty to get out if they lose..

upbeat stream
#

They can't pay the penalty and ador knows it. A good solution would be to let them become independent but split profits, then require a certain number of albums and tours. Good for ador and njz, but hybe might be worried that this could set up a dangerous precedent

old cypress
#

There's no knowing how much the penalty will be, it might be much lower than expected and the girls or their new company might be able to pay it

#

moreover if mhj wins her put option lawsuit she'll have enough money to pay the penalty - if she wants to

It's due to this clause in the standard contract:
'If the 'Singer' violates the contents of the contract with the purpose of unilaterally breaching the contract during the contract period, despite the 'Agency' faithfully fulfilling its obligations according to the contract contents, the 'Singer' shall pay the 'Agency' a penalty separate from the damages in Paragraph 1, calculated by multiplying the average monthly sales for the previous 2 years at the time of contract termination by the number of months remaining in the contract period'

copper jetty
#

and they're going to go by NJ sales for 2022 - 2024 which is how much again?? I think if I remember 2023 NJ was third in profits in Hybe only behind Big Hit and Pledis 💀 HanniCANT

#

they could probably do that as a settlement but you heard their lawyers though... not now.

upbeat stream
#

Yeah, any discussion will only happen after the appeal

grizzled summit
#

you guys are forgetting that the court can reduce their penalty incase they lose

Korean News & Media Outlets to Approach with Caution

The following media outlets have consistently published content that targets and harasses NewJeans/NJZ/MHDHH, while some simultaneously release favorable articles about HYBE. I urge everyone to exercise critical judgment when engaging with content from these sources:

  2. Money Today
  3. TV Daily

안녕하세요. 멤버들의 부모 일동입니다.
일부 매체들을 통해 보도된 멤버의 부모들 사이에 분열이 생겼다'는 내용은 전혀 사실이 아닙니 다. 오해를 바로잡기 위해 해당 입장을 밝힙니다.
멤버 5인은 모두 하이브로 돌아갈 수 없다는 확고한 입장을 가지고 있으며, 이는 각자 가족과 충분한 상의 끝에 내린 결정입니다. 애초에 다섯 명 전원이 동의하지 않으면 법적 대응도 시작하지 않기로 약속한 만큼, 멤버들은 서로를 깊이 신뢰하고 단결하고 있습니다.
현재도 멤버들은 동일한 입장을 고수하고 있으며, 저희 부모들 역시 자녀들의 의사를 전적으로 존중하며 변함없이 지지하고 있습니다. 멤버들은 현재 어려운 상황임에도 다섯 명이 자주 만나 며 변함없는 우정을 이어가고 있고, 저희 부모들 역시 이러한 어려움을 계기로 더욱 주기적으로 소통하며 돈독한 관계를 이어가고 있기에, 가족 간 분열, 멤버 이탈 등 근거 없는 루머가 기사화 되는 것을 보며 당혹스럽고 유감스러울 뿐입니다.
마치 분열을 조장하려는 누군가의 의도가 느껴졌기에, 대응할 가치가 없다고 생각했었습니다.
그러나 특정 멤버들의 실명이 거론되는 수준에 이르렀기에 이 입장을 밝힙니다.
멤버 해린 관련 찌라시는 사실과 전혀 다릅니다. 해린은 물론 해린의 부모님 모두 뜻이 확고히 일치하며, 그 외 가정사에 대한 추측 또한 모두 사실이 아닙니다. 아무런 근거 없는 일방적 추측 으로 인해 해당 멤버와 가족 모두 극심한 정신적 스트레스를 겪고 있습니다.
미성년 자녀의 의사를 존중하여 친권 조정을 진행한 것은 다른 멤버의 일이며, 이 가정 역시 자녀 와 어머님의 뜻이 확고하기에 해당 가정사에 대한 추측 역시 자제해 주시기를 요청드립니다.
현재 모든 가족은 각자의 자녀를 존중하며 지지하고 있다는 점, 확실히 말씀드립니다.
가사소송법 제10조는 '가정법원에서 처리 중이거나 처리한 사건에 관하여는 성명 • 연령 • 직업 및 용모 등을 볼 때 본인이 누구인지 미루어 짐작할 수 있는 정도의 사실이나 사진을 신문, 잡지, 그 밖의 출판물에 게재하거나 방송할 수 없다.'고 정하고 있고, 또한 제72조에서는 보도 금지 규정을 위반한 행위에 대한 형사처벌 조항을 명시하고 있습니다.
이점 유념하여 개인정보에 대한 무분별한 추측과 확산을 삼가주시길 바랍니다.
친권 문제는 한 개인의 가정사입니다. 해당 사안을 '어도어와의 법적 분쟁'과 연관지어 악의적으로 활용하는 일이 앞으로 없길 바랍니다.
신뢰가 바탕이 되어야 할 회사가 멤버의 가정사를 악용하여 언론플레이를 하고 있는데, 저희는 부모로서 다시 그곳에 자녀를 보낼 수 없습니다.
경영진이 바뀐 어도어와 하이브는 이제까지 단 한 번도 저희에게 신뢰를 보여준 적이 없으며, 이는 현재까지도 변함이 없습니다.

Oh my god

#

What’s gonna happen now 😭😭😭

polar owl
#

Here's one of the worst outcomes:

#

A drawn-out battle where ADOR/Hybe aims to exhaust the girls into a compromise. With the injunction, NJ members can’t perform or even appear in ads, leaving them stuck in a prolonged legal and media fight. Meanwhile, Hybe promotes new groups with world tours, variety shows, and award shows, banking on the short public memory. Even if NJ eventually agrees to a compromise, Hybe is unlikely to let them succeed again—stalling their momentum until they’re free to leave the company.

17-20 year old famously never change their opinions so no point in discussing it haerinface

# hoary frost No this is not an opinion from a neutral standpoint lol. its literally making up...

Everything we discussed here is made up scenario. Reality is we don't know anything. All we have is he say she say. N based on that we making calculated assumptions. It's better to assume multiple scenarios n prepare ourselves as their fans from all the things media has been throwing at us.
Plus they have been giving very neutral stand points ever since they joined the thread n any argument is appreciated to have fairer discussion. Otherwise we'd be just be another echo chamber ignoring many facts n heavily biased towards girls even ignoring the mistakes they made like with the injunction.

They have made me mad a couple of times but I also agree often enough so I'm fine with them

#

Again. Reality is it's girls words against hybe's words. Court will only accept solid evidence n not their words even if we know how messed up kpop industry is n know that girls are sharing tge truth. But to win they need solid proof.

#

If girls lose then regardless of reality, legally it would be called made scenario. Ofc that's if scenarios but knowing how corrupted the system is, we should we prepared for hate train. So discussing about all the scenarios is fine.

This channel is pretty much only place where we can discuss without antis and trolls so it's a very valuable place imo. But showing up and coming up with made-up situations such as "njz is not telling the whole truth" or "one of them might do a keena" or "mhj is grooming and manipulating the girls" is not helping the discussion at all and ultimately just spreading hybe's talking points.

I'm not talking about you in particular, just that there are many people like that lately

  1. Mutual Contract Termination with New Agency Support – A negotiated departure from ADOR/HYBE, allowing the members to continue as a group under a new agency. This would likely involve a settlement or revenue-sharing deal, but frees them to move forward together.

  2. Legal Victory and Full Contract Nullification – The court rules in favor of the members, voiding the contract due to ADOR/HYBE’s breaches. They part ways without owing punitive fees, gaining full independence. But may not have rights to perform any of their old work.

  3. Partial Resolution (Solo Paths or Group Split) – The members don’t stick together. Some may reconcile with the company or negotiate individual settlements, while others push for an exit. The group effectively disbands or is reconstituted, with each leaving member attempting to rebuild their career—some potentially thriving solo. However, those who remain with Ador could face backlash from OG fans.

  4. Court-Mediated Return to ADOR with Better Terms – The court facilitates a return under improved conditions (e.g., management changes, more creative control). While not ideal—especially as OG Ador staff will most likely not be involved—it avoids a prolonged legal battle that could derail their careers.

i mean sure, you can consider those opinions as valid but with all we know what the girls said and what the company and outlets posted and did to the girls i can tell you
1 is maybe happening, probably not(?)
2 probably happening soon i can see it
3 never happening
4 not happening either bc thats not what the girls want

I agree to your assessment- this is what it feels like as of now - but think of a prolonged legal battle, and options #3 & #4 can unfortunately also be relevant

look, you saw their statement multiple time, their parents, how they lost so much trust and are so sure to not go back there even if there will be a fee penalty to pay
4 is not happening, 3 like i said, why would they split, for them its all or nothing
and with 2, they can rerecord songs in a few years if they want since the songs werent produced arent under hybe a&r

If NJZ can get the injunction overruled and get some kind of creative freedom, it will be a absolute boost to their confidence and they can continue to remain relevant in the media, for the advertisers and people in general.

bronze talon
polar owl
#

In the initial injunction ruling, the judge dismissed all the arguments put forward by NJZ as not substantive enough to warrant a termination.

#

Objection goes to the same court, so hopes are not too high. If they lose again, they can appeal to a higher court with probably a better chance of getting something in their favour

#

The main lawsuit is going to take some time. Next hearing is in 2 months, and this will probably require multiple hearings, and Ador can use potential delay tactics to drag this on further.

The Court: "Isn't trust in this context implying that NewJeans wouldn’t have become a trainee at ADOR if it weren’t because of 🧢? Or am I misunderstanding this? Typically, trust is shattered over issues like non-payment or something like that, but this situation seems unique, so I need to consider more on what trust signifies in the realm of long-term management and production agreements."

ngl this is making me extremely confident like if the judge already acknowledges that the girls only joined ADOR, because of mhj, then I hope they also realize that ousting her without notifying the members is an ultimate breakdown of trust

‼️ HYBE EMPLOYEE WANTS TO BULLY NEWJEANS TO D*ATH

Hybe Employee, Sean Lim, who used to run @theseoulite and made many viral tweets hating on Newjeans, including joking about Newjeans needing to "hang themselves".

Sean Lim's X account has been suspended, but he has still been posting on YouTube, with a channel 98% dedicated to hating on Newjeans.

Sean was found out to be a Hybe employee and had run another account famous for spreading debunked lies that often go viral thanks to Hybe fandoms.

Is it Hybe's intention to bully Newjeans until drastic measures?

Since sub labels under hybe share hybe services including pr. It is adors duty to take action against hybe for this but they didn't. Remember they said they can't do anything about hybr during girls 14 days notice.

Thing is ador uses hybe services. As i said above why did ador said they can't do anything about hybe during 14 days girls gave them.
Sejong really failed there cuz it looks more than enough as they said in main court any one if the mentioned complaints are enough for breach of trust.

Those who think like this should get out of the fandom immediately.
Your job is to ask why the court issued a ban when there are already laws about compensating for the remaining time,
not to attack Team Bunny.
If the court makes another idiotic ruling in the main trial, I bet you’ll end up attacking all five members.

And BNZs should start preparing for the possibility that the members won’t live in Korea anymore.
It’s not that the country is bad, it’s the trashy people who are banding together. Korean BNZs will keep fighting them.

But the question is is that a smart move bc they knew the outcome could be the same in the injunction

If so then maybe the members and their legal team have been cooking the whole time and ador just doesn't know yet

That's why they said we have to trust them, who knows

Well they can appeal twice can't they ?

Object and then appeal

#

Different processes but both seek to overturn the first ruling

#

It's reasonable to doubt sejong after what happened during the injunction. Though the injunction hearing was really short so it's also possible they didn't want to introduce new evidence and thought that the public evidence was enough

I don't wanna judge the judges ruling here completely but I've seen people talk about him/them not looking completely humane, idk

mild mist
bronze talon
#

Basically

old cypress
#

ah yeah for sure, the injunction judge had that pov

subtle matrix
#

I think it's just a case of injunctions and lawsuits being very different processes. The first hearing for the injunction was held March 7 I think? And the ruling was released on March 21, just 2 weeks later. In contrast the first hearing for the lawsuit was held April 3 and the second hearing won't be until June. For the injunction to be dismissed I think NJZ's legal team would have to drop enough evidence to make it an open-and-shut case, which this will never be because NJZ's case rests on a series of circumstantial events and not like one single big complaint. The lawsuit will be a longer process which gives them a better opportunity to establish a more cohesive set of arguments

bronze talon
#

Can lawyers or judges not see many circumstantial events as one big complaint on a human matter
I mean I piles up no? Why would so many different things not mean one thing which is clear, them not being handled and treated the way they should and them wanting to get out of there for also not correcting things they demanded no?

subtle matrix
#

That's what I'm saying it's more likely for that to happen in the lawsuit than in the injunction which is a much shorter process (and it's only supposed to be a temporary ruling)

bronze talon
#

Yep

old cypress
bronze talon
#

I hope they can reveal all of it and even submit things we haven't heard of in the appeal or even in the objection
Idk how much time they have or events they can share/reveal
But I hope this event uppiling leads to them realising that they do NOT wanna go back and that there were actual shit things going on yk

it's a lawsuit so they most likely have time to present everything

#

Hopefully
I mean do you remember the pile of documents or papers on the national assembly desk the judge had when Hanni went there in October
He asked them passive aggressively if he should reveal all of it, he didn't ofc but the ador/hybe guy standing there didn't say a word

subtle matrix
#

I don't believe their legal team held back evidence (because the ruling is so damaging to them) but more so that the nature of the evidence makes it so they would have to subpoena it or call people to testify which I don't think was an option for the injunction

steel depot
#

the next one is in june 5th... i hope they reveal everything the girls told us what we know wasn't all of it and i believe them

June 6th I believe

#

I'm not 100% confident yet
I heard that a diff judge will overlook this objection
Correct me if I'm wrong, I saw something like that on twitter

I think the objection is unlikely to change anything, it's just a process they go have to through

bronze talon
#

So they can appeal ig

subtle matrix
#

Lawyers will probably argue that the ruling is too damaging for the group, etc., judge will uphold the ruling and then they can move to the appeal

bronze talon

Idk why they would, probably? But I'm still positive that they at least will see something new again through this objection even if the outcome is the same

They definitely should invest more in vocal training, as much as being an idol means being pretty and cute all the time, they're making music as well. It's also one of the main focuses other than being beautiful on stage

They're probably too afraid of hybe. While bts is the main moneymaker, hybe has enough successful groups to go on even without bts and hybe can run bts careers into the ground by using the same mediaplay tactics they used against newjeans. But i'm just assuming so I could be wrong.

What I can say for sure is jungkook tried to tell his fans to stop hating on newjeans and hybe shut him down and twisted his message and jungkook did nothing to correct it. Which confirms that he got silenced. And also that HYBE can sue bts members if they damage the BTS brand and I assume hybe considers ARMY as part of the bts brand.

#

And V is known to be close with mhj so i'm pretty sure that they're either afraid of hybe or they are unable to speak about the matter

#

not everyone can be as brave as newjeans

short laurel
#

Thise jk n v case are not explained much tbh n as for hybe successful groups. Having numbers on Spotify n being actually successful are different. Their groups aside from svt are not as big as they appear.

#

Lose will be huge for hybe if bts members ever left. Hybe didn't diversify well enough yet.

old cypress
#

Yeah but they'll survive and still be a big 4. TXT Enhypen lsfm illit svt bnd are all actually successful groups by all metrics

short laurel
#

I m gonna be honest. I don't think most of those has as much intl reach as it appears on streaming sites. N hybe main focus is very much intl. They are successful but not the standard of success hybe wants them to be. Idk if they'll still be big4. In fact many even now question if hybe can be considered part of big 4 yet.

#

Ofc it's just my opinion based on what I've seen.

old cypress
#

I'm not even talking about streaming sites, they have high album sales and successful tours, pretty much on the same level as other top groups

short laurel
#

High sales are sus cuz of album pushing, one of their groups not even known n had 1m sales.
Ik svt has alot of tours almost too much but others honestly idk. I just don't c anyone in kpop who knows about other groups or their music as much outside the controversies.

upbeat stream
#

Being with hybe has been very benificial to them, can't really blame them for trying to not that relationship

#

They will be huge outside of hybe too, but from their perspective, why rock the boat?

I hope i m cuz of my circle. Cuz seriously all everyone in my circle knows is the drama surrounding them cuz of how loud media is on them..

because they're popular, precisely...

I would say there is some concern for illit though, they have only managed one hit so far

yeah illit is different but it's a matter of wait&see

Popular in not so good way. Lsfm n illit debuted with huge drama.

But the others are very successful no question

#

But regardless non of them matches bts. N will be huge lose for hybe if members ever leave which hybe would not want to c

old cypress
#

yeah it's a loss but they'll survive. Even if HYBE gets 50% smaller they're still the largest kpop company

short laurel
#

It'll still hurt hard. Shares are bound to get hit hard. N hybe will be comparable to other big 3 then. Even though ppl still question if hybe is considered big 4 or not

so, they will survive lol

think about how many of the messages you send could be taken out of context like that, nobody is perfect or has to be nice all the time, its a business
she called them immature because they likely were immature
benefit of others is likely referencing to her higher ups in hybe and the first sentence doesnt have context

not trying to reach for straws to defend her, theres plenty of things i dont agree with but this is a nothing burger

The kakaotalk messages were proven misleading. Taken out of context yes but take the fat shaming example, it turned out that she was talking about hybe execs not newjeans.

In the meantime she literally saved newjeans from being shelved and she's done her best to give the girls an environment where they can thrive.

Question

#

Wouldn't NJZ present the argument that they were promised by MHJ that she would always remain CEO be like an auto win

#

How could current ADOR argue against that

hot girder

I don't think it's an auto win, but it could probably further support their argument to break off the contract because of breach of trust

subtle matrix
#

I mean it would throw MHJ under the bus kinda and probably hurt her case vs HYBE

#

But ADOR couldn't say "well that was when MHJ was CEO, the company is different now" because that would give a lot of strength to NJZ's argument that the company is fundamentally different

how would it hurt her case against hybe ?

#

Where did the girls claim they have been promised mhj would always stay as the ceo of ador?

Yes but as seen in the injunction I think the courts will have a tendency to answer that with "the contract between NJZ and ADOR doesn't state that ADOR has to keep the same staff/NJZ doesn't have any say on it"

I think you're putting too much weight on the "equal parties"

short laurel

so they have no protection as employees and have no equality in contract. and if judge not c them as equal parties... idk i just not like this.

subtle matrix
#

I think we should see it as them being equal parties in the sense that each has a series of rights and obligations to the other party as defined by the contract, unlike for example an employement contract where the employee has certain legal protections that the employer does not. To interpret "equal parties" as NewJeans having a say on who works at ADOR would mean that NewJeans, a third party, had the power to determine who ADOR hires or fires, which could infringe on the rights of those workers

short laurel
#

i not mean like that. i mean like suppose team A working with company B on contract but company C come and replace everyone at B with people of C. at this point company B is essentially different company. since it's not just mhj who was replaced but even some of the creatives were changed, from girls perspective the people they originally signed n worked with are not same anymore. this is being argued in court.

They don't say too much more than what is heard in the two clips above, but they touch on how you don't expect fans of Western music to be company stans like you find with HYBE. They also talk about how HYBE is obviously trying to stop this because if one group can do what they want then maybe many other groups would do the same. They talk about how it is unlikely to affect things financially when BTS will be printing money with their comeback but they wonder how HYBE could be in ten years if all these legal changes happen over that course and if a HYBE as we know it could exist if NewJeans helps to change the K-pop world.
