NewJeans is facing controversy. Legal issues have emerged as the group aims to end their exclusive contract with ADOR, their management company. This battle centers on claims of mistreatment. ADOR contends that the contract is valid and unbroken.
The courts recently sided with ADOR, granting an injunction preventing NewJeans from any independent activities. As a result, it’s been over a year since the group dropped new music. Their sponsorships have mostly ended as well, with many being picked up by more active idols and groups.
In a lighter note, July 22 marks NewJeans’ 3rd debut anniversary. The group celebrated by posting a special clip on their social media pages, dubbing July 22 as "NewJeans Day." The animation features the five members in a cute Japanese animation style.
NewJeans is also live streaming all their content on their YouTube channel to commemorate the day. Fans can watch past music videos, performances, and making-of clips.
The controversy adds a stormy backdrop to the celebrations. Fans are hoping for a resolution soon, but the situation remains tense as both sides prepare for further legal battles. Stay tuned as this drama unfolds!
