Former ADOR CEO Min Hee-jin proposed waiving her 25.6 billion won court award against HYBE in exchange for the company dropping all legal actions involving NewJeans members and others. The offer came during a press conference on February 25, 2026, in Seoul, amid an ongoing dispute that began in April 2024. HYBE stated it has no position on the proposal, while ADOR unveiled a new brand film signaling a fresh start.
The K-pop group NewJeans has announced its return to ADOR following a court ruling upholding their contract through 2029. After a year-long legal battle stemming from internal conflicts at HYBE, the five members expressed intentions to resume activities with the label. The resolution comes after public support for former CEO Min Hee-jin and criticisms of the parent company.
