NewJeans is facing controversy as ADOR demands the group return to activities following a recent court ruling.
On June 17, the Seoul High Court rejected the members’ appeal against ADOR, upholding the agency’s rights as the group’s exclusive management. This ends the dispute over independent promotions that the members began after claiming their contracts were terminated in November 2024.
ADOR responded swiftly, releasing a statement on June 18:
"Hello, this is ADOR."
"Yesterday, the appeals court reaffirmed that ADOR is the agency representing NewJeans."
"We deeply thank the court for its decision."
"We hope this ruling serves as a turning point for the members to return to their rightful place as NewJeans and resume their group activities."
"As NewJeans approaches their third debut anniversary next month, we will do our utmost to support their continued growth and success."
The ongoing tension has captured public interest, with fans eagerly hoping for a resolution ahead of the group’s anniversary in July.
Fans and industry watchers are on high alert as NewJeans aims for a comeback amid this legal storm.
