On the 10th "On the 7th, the members of the Newzins announced their plans to act under a group name that was not discussed with the Newzins, creating a confusing situation and making various inquiries."It is a one-sided claim that the exclusive contract between the Newzins members and Adore is legally valid and that it has been terminated."
They have filed a lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract along with a provisional injunction recognizing that Adore is in the position of a management company (planning company) under the exclusive contract and is awaiting court judgment"We ask you to use the official team name "New Jeans" based on due agreement." he said.
We will do our best to end the confusion as soon as possible and present good music and content" he said.

At the same time, he also announced plans for his activities as an NJZ. NZ will appear in 'Complex Live' at the Asia World Expo in Hong Kong in March. "We will release NJZ's new song and debut song on March 23rd, the last day of the Complex Con. "We will have an agent soon."
In November last year, Newzins announced the termination of its exclusive contract with its agency, Adore. At the time, the members said there was no obligation to compensate for the penalty because it was to terminate the exclusive contract due to the breach of the contract by Odor, and that they would continue to use Newzins' name. However, the members did not use the name Newzins due to the possibility of spreading to trademark issues.
On the other hand, Adore filed a lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract, saying that the exclusive contract with Newzins is valid until July 2029. It also applied for a ban on preserving the status of an agency and signing an advertising contract. Among them, Newzins began his independent move to NZ.
However, on March 7, the Seoul Central District Court will hold a date for a prohibited provisional interrogation, including the preservation of the status of an agency and the signing of an advertising contract. In addition, the first hearing date for a lawsuit to confirm the validity of an exclusive contract will be held on April 3. Hani's visa issue also remains. Hani, a dual Australian and Vietnamese citizen, has been working on an E-6 (art promotion) visa issued through Odor. The visa expired earlier this month. To obtain an E-6 visa under the Korean Popular Culture Industry Act, you must submit an exclusive contract, a pop culture and arts enterprise registration certificate, an identity guarantee from the agency's representative, and an employment recommendation letter from the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism. Odor said it is preparing documents for Hani's visa extension because it is in the position that the exclusive contract with Newzins is valid.
