The situation of NewJeans members booking an overseas studio has been captured, gathering interest for their comeback. Recently, a document believed to be the schedule of a recording studio in Copenhagen, Denmark, has spread in online communities. The document includes content stating that the studio was booked under the name 'ADOR' from April 13 to 16. This has raised speculation that NewJeans is preparing a new album locally. Prior to this, it became known that Haerin, Haein, and Hani visited Copenhagen with ADOR staff, which attracted attention. The agency ADOR also acknowledged this fact. The five members of NewJeans declared the termination of their exclusive contracts due to a breakdown in trust with ADOR in 2024, engaging in legal disputes. However, on November 12 of last year, Haerin and Haein expressed their intention to return to ADOR. Subsequently, Minji, Hani, and Daniel also conveyed their willingness to return, and ADOR announced that they would hold individual meetings with the members. However, in December of last year, while ADOR officially announced Hani's return, they also revealed Daniel's contract termination. Minji is reported to be continuing negotiations.
