Hive "I never told Min Hee-jin to leave because I would give him money, stop lying and return to his main job" (Full Story)
Sep 26, 2024
|
Hive said on the 26th that `Hive has never proposed a negotiation proposal to Min Hee-jin that 'I'll give you the money, so get out' The audit was conducted based on clear internal and external reports, and a police investigation is also underway. Director Min has been fully guaranteed full authority over production and management than any other label and has enjoyed greater benefits and support than any other label for supporting put options, salary treatment activities, etc" he said.
The claim that overseas PR agencies distributed slanderous data is also not true, and the sales volume of albums in Japan is also cleverly distorting the facts by mixing shipment and sales standards. Although it is known that the Japan Records Association has certified gold (100,000 copies), gold is selected based on 'shipment volume'. The Newzins fan meeting and the suspension of the album were due to Min's negligence and delay in decision-making."
Earlier, Director Min said "Hive told me to leave because he would pay me, but he refused because the money was not his purpose. The essence of the situation is the public execution of the subsidiary's president who openly defied the company's feelings, "Newzins is a child born with my head and heart. Due to Hive's obstruction of work, the fan meeting was canceled and the work on the album was suspended..." he said, calling for his return to the position of CEO of Audor.

As there are many untrue contents in the interview article of Director Min Hee-jin reported by JoongAng Ilbo on September 26, I inform you as follows.
■ Hive has never offered a deal that says, `I'll give you the money, get out of here.'
First of all, Hive has never proposed a negotiation proposal to Director Min Hee-jin that 'I'll give you the money, so get out' It is absurd for us to make such ridiculous false claims in media interviews.
■ The audit was conducted based on clear internal and external reports, and the police investigation is also in progress.
Director Min claimed that the audit was 'accidental emotion' and 'illegally' based on false facts', but the audit was not conducted accidentally. It was launched as internal and external reports continued. As a result of the audit, Director Min has been looking for ways to attack the company with the deputy CEO for a long time, and there have been countless bad intentions and circumstances such as 'Hive won't let anyone touch us inside','Ultimately get out of Hive','Mothers can take advantage of the fact that they didn't sign a contract with Hive' and met investors. Also, Director Min himself has not yet responded to the company's audit. This is a serious matter that is currently under police investigation.
■ Director Min was fully guaranteed full authority over production and management.
It is also not true that the promise of independence guarantees for the `Min Hee-jin label" was broken. Director Min was guaranteed full authority over production and management more than any other label when he was CEO. Without any interference, we have enjoyed greater benefits and support than any other label on put options, salaries, treatment, activity support, promotions, etc.
■ The columnist also confirmed that allegations that overseas PR agencies sprayed slanderous materials were false.
It is also not true that an overseas PR agency distributed slanderous materials. The company has responded that it has never distributed data on private directors, and if they make such claims, it is a lie. ("At no point did any agency affiliated with HYBE provide any slanderous or untrue information about Min, to suggest otherwise would be a lie"). In addition, Billboard columnist Jeff Benjamin also replied that he never told Min that he had received any material full of slander.
■ Regarding album sales in Japan, we are cleverly distorting the facts by mixing shipment and sales standards.
It is also cleverly distorting the facts about the volume of record sales in Japan. The article 'Sold 1.02 million copies in Japan alone' was such a distortion of the facts that it explained the sales volume with the Oricon chart data released at the time. The day after the article was published, it was known that the Japan Records Association certified gold (100,000 copies), but gold is selected based on 'shipment volume'.
■ The fan meeting and the suspension of music work are not due to Hive's obstruction of work, but due to Director Min's negligence and delay in decision-making.
The surprise fan meeting for Korean fans and the suspension of album work were not due to the dismissal of the CEO and the exclusion of the deputy CEO. Audor was considering the Seoul World Cup Stadium as the venue for the Korean fan meeting, but the rental was rejected due to grass issues. The new leadership gathered working-level opinions to discuss alternatives and new albums, asking Min to meet several times and communicating by e-mail, but Min is causing disruptions by delaying his answer or taking a long vacation suddenly. Many things for fans have been suspended due to director Min's negligence at work and delay in decision-making.
■ The agenda of the board of directors is not subject to consultation and there is no obligation to notify in advance, but it was clearly notified three days before the meeting.
Director Min said that the dismissal of the CEO was not a negotiated agenda, but this is also an absurd argument. The board agenda is not subject to consultation and there is no obligation to notify in advance. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors of Audor clearly informed the Min director of the agenda three days before the meeting. Regarding the reason for dismissal, the board of directors explained that there was no clear reason to accept it, but in addition to the breakdown of the trust relationship, it is a policy appropriate situation to separate the production and the CEO's work. This clearly remains a record.
Director Min's serious disqualification as a manager is revealed just by spreading false information through interviews. Please return to your main job and focus on your work for artists and fans.
