While the members of the group NewJeans continue to have disputes with their agencies Adore and Hive, the members' parents have opened SNS accounts.

Parents of NewJeans members Minji, Hani, Daniel, Harin, and Hyein opened a new SNS account on the morning of the 31st and announced their position that they will operate temporarily to represent their position in HYBE and Dispute.

The reason for opening the SNS account was that there was no official window to communicate the position" he explained. He also pointed out some media reporting behaviors in connection with the dispute and claimed that "Hive and Adore were informed that they were again trying to disseminate false information to their members"."




"The content to be delivered through this account will be mainly about content that is difficult for members to communicate directly," he said, adding that "we ask for your understanding that as the only spokesperson of the members currently, a delivery channel is needed to correct the facts."

Earlier in November last year, members of the New Jeans held an emergency press conference and claimed that Ador violated the contract and that he was no longer affiliated with Ador. As a result, Ador has also filed a lawsuit against the members for the validity of the exclusive contract.

However, the members are strongly determined that they have no intention of returning to the door, such as creating a separate account 'Jeanspo Free' to contest the name of the activity. Recently, "Dore met his parents and tried to drive a wedge between them", and appointed Sejong, a law firm, as an agent for the dispute and took legal action.




The following is a full text of the positions of parents of NewJeans members.

Hello, we are Minji, Hani, Daniel, Haerin, and Hyein's parents.

This is an account that will be temporarily operated, and we inform you that it has been inevitably opened to represent our position in our dispute with Hive.




Since there was no official window to convey the position, I have tried several times to conduct interviews directly through various media companies or to convey the facts through reporters I got to know.

Thankfully, there were media you received and wrote as it was, but it was very few, and we tried to distribute the whole thing through the agency, but we had a lot of difficulties in communicating our position through the paper without distortion, such as weird headlines.

While the members' stories are distorted or quoted within a negative framework, Hive and Ador are distributing hundreds of articles a day that represent only the positions of HYBE and Adore without even going through the process of verifying facts and claiming objections that media companies must go through.

Unfortunately, ahead of the provisional suit, I would like to inform you that Hive and Ador are once again handing out false information to various reporters to distribute false information targeting their members, and we have created this account.

I'm very sorry to know that there are people who will be tired from the long dispute.

However, please understand that the contents to be delivered through this account will be difficult for the members to communicate directly, and as the only spokesperson for the members at present, we need a delivery channel to correct the facts.
