NewJeans deleted the newly opened SNS account during the dispute with ADOR. As of today (the 1st) afternoon, it has been confirmed that the SNS accounts created and used by the five members of NewJeans during the dispute regarding their exclusive contract with ADOR are inaccessible. NewJeans had previously claimed to terminate their exclusive contract with ADOR and named their new group NJZ. They had created new SNS accounts to communicate with fans. Additionally, their guardians had used this SNS account to reveal official comments. However, it seems that the relevant account was switched to private after NewJeans declared their return to ADOR. The five members of NewJeans lost in the first instance of the lawsuit filed by ADOR to confirm the validity of their exclusive contract and did not appeal. Previously, members Hae-rin and Hae-in officially announced their return after discussions with ADOR. Subsequently, Minji, Hani, and Daniel also declared, 'We have decided to return to ADOR.' ADOR has clarified that they will promote individual meetings with Minji, Hani, and Daniel, who expressed their intention to return in the form of a notification, as well as Hae-rin and Hae-in, who returned through a normal discussion process.
