ADOR shuts down NewJeans’ contract termination; promotes scope for dialogue
After NewJeans announced on November 28, 2024, that they were ending their exclusive contracts with the corporation, ADOR responded in a dramatic change of events. With tensions between the two parties at an all-time high, the five-member group’s decision will go into effect at midnight on November 29.
During the press conference, ADOR issued an official statement expressing regret for the timing and manner of NewJeans’ announcement, “We regret that a press conference to announce the termination of the exclusive contract was planned and conducted even before receiving a response to the certification of contents and without sufficient review.”
The company further defended its alleged actions, stressing that it had not violated the terms of the contract and refuted NewJeans’ claim of broken trust, stating: “ADOR, as a party of the exclusive contracts, has not violated the contracts, and claiming that trust has been unilaterally broken does not constitute grounds for termination.”
ADOR underlined that the agreements between the business and the NewJeans members are still in effect in spite of the conflict, saying: “The exclusive contracts between ADOR and the NewJeans members remain valid. Therefore, we expect them to continue their scheduled activities ahead together with ADOR as they have until now.”
The statement also disclosed ADOR’s attempts to interact with the members, including multiple requests for meetings that were apparently not fulfilled. “We have requested several meetings with the artists, but they were not carried out. We hope that even now, we can open our hearts and have sincere conversations together.”
ADOR ended on a positive note by promising to assist all five of NewJeans’ future ambitions and to help them develop into internationally recognized musicians. This unexpected announcement, meantime, follows Min Hee Jin’s exit from ADOR due to a disagreement that has been going on since April with HYBE.
