On the afternoon of the 15th, a parliamentary audit of the Environment and Labor Committee (hereinafter referred to as the Environment and Labor Committee) was held at the National Assembly. New Jeans Hani was present as a reference, and Adore CEO and Hive Chief Personnel Officer Kim Joo-young attended as a witness.
Hani testified directly about workplace bullying and bullying in Hive.
First of all, Hani talked about being bullied on a live show with a Newzins member about why she decided to attend"I mentioned again last month that another agency manager within Hive complained of bullying in an emergency YouTube live broadcast, saying, 'Ignore you'."
Then "I came out knowing that if I didn't attend today, this would be quietly moved on and buried." This is something anyone can suffer from in the future. Whether it's another senior or junior, I came in with the hope that I wouldn't be subjected to this" he said.

Hani was told by CEO Kim Joo-young that `there is no evidence, so there is nothing we can do about it.'Regarding the agency's response to the incident, he said there was only a scene where he greeted CCTV. I saw the CCTV in person, and there was only an eight-second video of greeting in front of me. I heard there's no video of 50 minutes later. When I asked why there was no video in the back, he kept changing the reason throughout the meeting. He also made a mistake by saying that he deleted the video. I'm Vietnamese-Australian, so I didn't fully understand Korean, so I recorded it so that I didn't miss the contents of such an important place." At the same time, "If I have a misunderstanding, I want to solve it with my manager."
In response to Hani's questioning, Kim Joo-young said, `I first heard from my parents on June 13th. As one of the in-house directors, I asked to check the CCTV because I thought I had to protect the artist. The manager mentioned now is not a manager belonging to Adore, but the CEO is a manager at another company. I asked if there was such a fact with the label. And I took action as far as I could, including restoring CCTVs that had expired storage period"However, unfortunately, the arguments are mixed with each other. I'm also looking for data that can be proven out of frustration, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to secure it."

However, in response to Kim Joo-young's remarks, Hani said, `I'm sorry, but I don't think you did your best. There were enough things to do"And he said he would protect us in the first place, but if he wants to protect us, he has no choice but to fight. But he didn't even have the will to fight. Then I don't think I can say that you did your best.' Hani then said, `I know that if I say that I want you to do your best, I'll move on, so I want you to solve this problem quickly before we talk about the future," he said sternly.
In response, CEO Kim Joo-young said, `I will listen to the artist's voice more and communicate more. In the current situation, there are conflicting arguments between the parties, so I think it is more important to check the facts than anything else. We will do our best to sincerely cooperate with the ongoing Labor Office investigation and clarify the facts" he said.
In response to the question that the front and back of the CCTV video were deleted, Kim Joo-young immediately asked for CCTV confirmation, but I could only check the video of greeting. Only the video was archived. The rest of the video has not been deleted, but cannot be recovered because the storage period has expired."
