On the 11th, the Civil Agreement Department 50 (senior judge Kim Sang-hoon) of the Seoul Central District Court held an interrogation date for the injunction, including the exercise of voting rights filed by former representative Min against Hive.
On the same day, former representative Min appealed for unfairness, saying, `This issue began with Hive's betrayal.' After joining the company believing in Chairman Bang Si-hyuk, "Forget about SM Entertainment and open Min Hee-jin World", Min was dismissed from his position after asking for the "crime of reputation" for raising suspicions that Eilit plagiarized New Jin's, even though he had invested KRW 16.1 billion in joining the company and made New Jin's debut into a trillion-worth ador.
At the same time, Min's side released text messages and transcripts with Hive's internal informants.
The informant texted an adorean official "I'd like to talk about the similarities between Irish and Newzins" And "I actually didn't know it would. Isn't that so obvious. I really didn't imagine making it the same..." he said on the phone. In particular, when asked if the creative director of Irish agency Billifrap asked him to share (the document), he answered "Right".

However, Hive's side also ruled that former representative Min had acted in treacherous ways. Hive terminated the shareholder agreement based on this judgment. Min recruited experts and made detailed plans to take over Odor. The fundamental trust relationship has been destroyed."
The court said it would decide as soon as possible after receiving additional opinions from both sides by the 25th.

Later, Adore dismissed former CEO Min through an in-house board of directors. Former CEO Min said, "This decision by Odor and Hive is in violation of shareholder contracts and court judgments." Members of the New Jeans also issued an ultimatum, saying, `Please return Min by September 25th.' Hive finally refused. Instead, he returned former CEO Min as an in-house director and proposed a five-year production authority equivalent to the entire remaining contract period of Newzins.
However, former CEO Min was indignant, saying, `The compromise between Dorr is a pun.' and insisted that he should return to Aldor in order to normalize Newzins. He also filed a provisional injunction request on the 2nd of next month to appoint him as a CEO after calling an extraordinary shareholders' meeting before his three-year term as an inside director expires.
