Next, HYBE Labels also defended its case by justifying its decision to dismiss Min Hee Jin as CEO. As one reason, the company named the ADOR sexual harassment case, asserting, "Rather than making efforts to prevent similar incidents in the future, the creditor (Min Jee Jin) insisted that new regulations should be instated to punish false accusers. Furthermore, the creditor distributed official press statements related to their personal dispute with the sexual harassment victim, 'B', using the name ADOR. This inflicted damages on ADOR's image and made it appear as a company that tolerated sexual harassment in the workplace." Furthermore, citing the example of the girl group FIFTY FIFTY, HYBE's side argued, "The creditor tarnished the debtor(HYBE)'s image using media play in an attempt to force the sale of ADOR stocks. The creditor drew up detailed plans, believing that it was possible to gain independence from HYBE.
