The Seoul Central District Court has ordered NewJeans (NJZ) to revise and resubmit their list of reasons for terminating their contract with ADOR. The court’s 50th Civil Agreement Division instructed the group to provide more concrete reasons and supporting evidence before March 14, 2025. The high-profile legal dispute between the K-pop girl group and their agency continues. ADOR, a subsidiary label of HYBE, had filed for the injunction to prevent the members from engaging in independent activities, including signing brand endorsement deals, while the lawsuit over their contract dispute is ongoing. The legal battle took center stage during the first hearing of ADOR’s injunction against New Jeans on March 7, where both sides presented their arguments. The group emotionally pleaded with the court to release them from their contract, stating they felt unprotected and disrespected by company executives. The members reportedly became tearful in the final minutes of their testimony, expressing the emotional toll the conflict had taken on them. The girl group claimed that HYBE was positioning newer groups like ILLIT and LE SSERAFIM to replace them, an allegation that ADOR refuted.
