The court's decision on March 21 to uphold ADOR's management rights over NewJeans was a logical conclusion. Min Hee Jin and her legal team at Sejong Law Firm likely anticipated this outcome. That's why, instead of filing for an injunction to suspend the exclusive contract, they took a bold step by pushing forward with the group's independent activities away from ADOR. The catalyst for this legal battle was NewJeans' emergency live broadcast last September, where the members publicly demanded the reinstatement of their ousted CEO, Min Hee Jin, and hinted at taking an independent path. However, this was not the true starting point of the conflict, nor is NewJeans the sole party in this dispute. Their attempted departure from HYBE was triggered by the Min Hee Jin vs. HYBE feud and was ultimately her chosen exit strategy. Let's not forget that even before the situation escalated, it was revealed that Min Hee Jin had been planning to take NewJeans with her.
