Group Newzins eventually leaves the adore.
On the afternoon of the 28th, New Jeans (New Jeans, Minji, Hani, Daniel, Haerin, and Hyein) held an emergency press conference on the termination of the exclusive contract at somewhere in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
Earlier on the 13th, Newzins sent a certificate to his agency, Adore, saying, “If you don’t accept the request for correction, I will cancel the exclusive contract.”
The members of New Jeans, who sent proof of contents under the real names of five members, Kim Min-ji, Hani Farm, Marsh Daniel, Kang Hae-rin, and Lee Hye-in, said, “We call on Doer to correct violations of the exclusive contract. Audor requested that all serious violations of the exclusive contract described below be corrected within 14 days from the date of receipt of this letter.”
The requirements include the necessary measures as an agency, the official apology of another label manager who said, “I ignore you,” and the resolution of the dispute with director Shin Woo-seok of the dolphin band, who said, “Ignore you” in the Hive Music Industry Report.
Newszins revealed the reason for holding an emergency press conference. Hani said, “The proof of corrective content delivered to YouTube Live and Audor was decided and carried out by five people,” adding, “The reason for this emergency press conference today is that the correction deadline for our request for corrective action ends at 12 o’clock today. However, even though business hours are over, Hive and Adore are not willing to meet our demands,” he said.
“We have an overseas schedule, so we leave tomorrow morning and come in next week, and in the meantime, Hive and Adore had a lot of conversations because we wanted to accurately convey our position and we had to hold an emergency press conference,” he said. “The reason why we are leaving Adore is very simple.” Newgins is an artist belonging to Adore, and Adore has an obligation to protect Newgins and is the most basic obligation as a company, and Adore has neither the will nor the ability to protect Newgins. So we’re going to waste the time we have left and the mental pain will continue. Above all, I don’t think there’s any reason to stay because there’s nothing I can get from work,” he claimed.

Minji said, “I would like to inform you that the exclusive contract will be terminated in the future. As you know, Adore is like a body with Hive at the moment. Audor has changed, and all the existing directors have been dismissed, he said. “We cannot accept it in a situation where we have cut off our relationship with the director who worked with us. So I asked for a correction, and the correction period ends at midnight,” he said.
“I don’t know if you saw it yesterday, but there was no correction to the demand, just the reluctant statement of position according to the proof of content and the continuous e-mail of showing. We have communicated our opinions several times, but once again, we felt that our insincere attitude was exhausting and that we had no sincerity toward us,” he said. “Now that business hours have passed and there are less than four hours left until midnight, we will terminate the exclusive contract as soon as the 29th.”
Regarding the penalty issue that occurs when the exclusive contract is terminated, Harin said, “I’ve seen several articles about the penalty, and we’ve never violated the exclusive contract and we’re still doing our best so far, so I don’t think there’s any reason to pay the penalty. I think this situation came because the current Adore and Hive violated the contract. Of course, Hive and Adore are responsible,” he said.
Above all, the New Jeans also expressed their willingness to take the team name ‘New Jeans’ as it is. Hye-in said, “If the midnight passes, you may not be able to use the name Newzins regardless of your will. The essence of New Jeans does not change and does not intend to give up. The name “Newzins” may not just come to us due to its name and trademark issue, but it’s not just a matter for us, he said. “We will try to secure the name “Newzins” fully because it is a meaningful name from the first day we meet until now.”

Hye-in said, “There are less than four hours left to be promised. If you had any intention of correcting the contents sent by e-mail several times, I think you would have already shown it sufficiently with actions before. As long as I knew that there was no correction, I thought that the longer I dragged on, the more confused the fans would be, so I held a press conference. In addition, I was very hurt and shocked by the external media play. And I thought there was no need to postpone the press conference because I’ve seen so many situations where I’m trying to deceive the public by greatly inflating untrue content.”
Hani said, “We’ve had a lot of conversations among ourselves because it’s something that five of us do together and five lives are at stake. So I agreed that this would be the best way, and I decided and then proceeded. My parents support me a lot. We don’t think it makes sense to be subjected to this, but we won’t be hiding behind it. That’s why I came out today because I didn’t think there was a need, and I’m going to cancel it with the desire to work freely and happily.”
Min-ji said, “I think the biggest problem is the lack of respect for each other. I think it was because I spoke out about the irrational part and there was no answer to it, he said. “I was not interested in improving, only lies and excuses. It was always this kind of time-dragging answer. I don’t want to waste my precious time, so I will cancel my exclusive contract as scheduled after midnight,” he said.
사진 확대 Newzins is in a position to fulfill its scheduled schedule. Danielle said, “If the exclusive contract is terminated, the five of us will not be artists belonging to Audor. I’m trying to get out of the door and do what I really want. However, the schedule that has been promised and the contract has already been made will proceed as it is. And we will also proceed with the advertisement under contract as scheduled, he said. “I want to tell you that you don’t have to worry. We don’t want to damage others by terminating the contract, and we don’t want to.”
“When we talked about our activities freely, we were talking about our desire to do the future with our favorite music and people we really like. If the CEO wants to, I want to do those things with the CEO,” he added.
Until the end, Newzins emphasized the termination of his exclusive contract with Adore. Their position is that even if Hive attempts to reconcile, there is no room for re-discussion. “Even if the exclusive contract is terminated, we will proceed with the scheduled schedule,” Min-ji said. “I want to continue working with CEO Min Hee-jin,” and pointed out, “Even though Dorors said they lacked communication with us, they continued to convey our opinions and it was Audors who sent us a cotton wool answer.”
“We have already communicated our opinions several times, and I think it’s a way to show that we want to talk now,” he said.
