More about HYBE and ADOR's conflict
HYBE and ADOR’s conflict started in April 2024 after the former discovered that the latter had been trying to overtake management rights. HYBE conducted a sudden internal audit on ADOR and sent a letter to Min Hee Jin, asking her to step down from her position as CEO. However, the CEO has denied every accusation made against her and assured that she had no intentions of taking over ADOR and NewJeans.
Additionally, the results of the audit revealed that Min Hee Jin and other officials at ADOR were indeed trying to separate themselves from HYBE along with NewJeans. HYBE announced that they will be taking the matter to court and suing the accused for breach of trust and professional malpractice.
However, on the very same day, Min Hee Jin held an emergency press conference where she made some explosive revelations, causing more tension between the two companies. Currently, the conflict remains unresolved.
