NewJeans' gravure was released. Fashion magazine 'VOGUE Korea' published a digital cover shot in collaboration with NewJeans and 'NIKE' on the 4th through their official SNS. In the gravure, NewJeans showcased various styles wearing 'NIKE's new sneakers, with bold and lively poses that further enhanced their sporty sensibility. Even in unit cuts, they expressed the brocade core look with their individual personalities, demonstrating perfect concept expression. After the gravure shoot, they honestly conveyed various thoughts in an interview about group activities and personal preferences. Minji expressed affection for the members, saying, 'They have helped me grow a lot and have been a great strength in every moment, being an essential presence in my life, like a big pillar.' Honey, who loves retro sensibilities like film cameras and vinyl records, said, 'Film cameras capture that moment in a photo, allowing you to look back and recall memories later,' and added, 'Choosing a record cover when I want to listen to music is very interesting and feels healing.' Daniel explained about his self-composed song performed at the fan meeting in Tokyo Dome, saying, 'Sometimes, things that cannot be expressed in words can be boldly conveyed through music,' and he wanted to incorporate the warmth and excitement he feels from Bunnies (NewJeans' fans) into the music. He expressed that every moment spent with fans is very important and he hopes it continues forever. NewJeans also mentioned their mindset after experiencing various stages since their debut. Hae-rin said, 'I do my best according to the stage situation at that time. Even if changes occur, I try to respond freely,' while Hae-in shared, 'Looking back, I sometimes regretted not fully enjoying the moment due to unnecessary worries. Since then, the excitement has grown larger than the pressure, and I even find that pressure interesting and something to be grateful for.' The full gravure and interview with NewJeans can be found on 'VOGUE Korea's official SNS and website.
ADOR has initiated a lawsuit seeking 43 billion won in damages from NewJeans' Daniel and Min Hee-jin. The initial court hearing is scheduled for the 26th. This follows a previous ruling where Min Hee-jin won against HYBE. ADOR claims Daniel's family is responsible for delays in NewJeans' comeback.
Daniel from NewJeans will have her fan communication records removed from the official platform Phoning, as ADOR restructures content amid ongoing contract disputes. This decision follows a legal battle regarding her contract with ADOR, which has raised concerns among fans about consumer rights and the implications for future disputes in the industry.
The Korean Entertainment Management Association has officially addressed the controversy surrounding NewJeans, recognizing it as a serious issue that could undermine the trust within the Korean pop culture industry. They demand accountability from those involved, particularly Min Hee-jin, and stress the importance of eradicating unethical practices like 'tampering' in the industry.
Min Heejin proposes to forgo a 25 billion yen claim against HYBE to conclude all ongoing lawsuits, emphasizing the well-being of NewJeans and the K-POP industry. She expresses gratitude for the court's rulings and aims to shift focus from legal battles to creative endeavors, urging for a harmonious environment for artists.
Min Hee-jin, at a press conference, proposed to HYBE to end all ongoing civil and criminal lawsuits in exchange for 25.5 billion won. She emphasized the importance of resolving conflicts for the benefit of NewJeans and the K-POP industry, stating her intention to focus on nurturing new artists and business directions.
The Seoul Central District Court has granted HYBE's request to suspend the enforcement of a payment ruling against Min Hee-jin, which was set at 25 billion won. This decision halts her request for a temporary seizure of HYBE's bank accounts. Min had previously filed for account seizure following a favorable ruling in her lawsuit against HYBE.
Min Heejin denied reports of meeting with Japanese investors regarding NewJeans, criticized media for spreading falsehoods, and announced legal actions against HYBE for contract violations. She won a court ruling requiring HYBE to pay her 25.5 billion won, leading HYBE to appeal the decision.
A social media post claims that a fan spotted Minji from NewJeans in London, describing her outfit and resemblance. The fan noted a name 'Kim' was mentioned nearby, possibly linking to Minji's full name. However, the accompanying photo was too blurry to confirm her identity. Meanwhile, NewJeans' agency ADOR won a legal case regarding their contracts, with some members expressing intentions to return, while Minji continues negotiations with ADOR.
