New Jeans: “No Obligation to Pay Penalty to Adore… Maintaining Contract = Severe Pain” [Full Text]

The group NewJeans has announced their separation from Ador once again. NewJeans members Minji, Hani, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein distributed an official press release on the 29th, the day after their emergency press conference, stating, “We will terminate our exclusive contract with Ador as of November 29, 2024, and will continue our activities freely apart from HYBE and Ador.” They continued, “Ador, as the agency with whom we have an exclusive contract, has the duty to manage sincerely for our benefits,” adding, “On the 13th, we made our final request for Ador to rectify their contractual breaches.”

Despite the 14-day correction period passing, Ador refused to rectify, and none of the requested issues were resolved.” NewJeans explained. NewJeans stated, “We have made several requests to Ador over the past few months.”

However, Ador only evaded and made excuses.”

“We clearly emphasize that genuine communication of mutual respect was not realized due to Ador,” they stressed. “Furthermore, we requested specific actions from Ador in our request for correction.”

But Ador did not take any corrective actions beyond business hours, making it physically impossible to rectify with the remaining corrective period,” they said, “Thus, holding a press conference yesterday was not just wordplay.” NewJeans announced that they are notifying Ador of the termination due to Ador’s breach of contractual duties and failure to rectify within the correction period.”

This termination notice is in line with the exclusive contract, and we signed the termination document ourselves,” they said, “Upon its arrival on the 29th, it takes immediate effect with Ador.”

From that point, the exclusive contract is void.”

Hence, there is no need to apply for an injunction to terminate the exclusive contract, and we are free to act from this day.”

NewJeans stated, “We have faithfully fulfilled our duties under the exclusive contract as artists affiliated with Ador.”

The termination of the exclusive contract is solely due to Ador’s breach of duty, so we are not responsible for any penalties,” they said, “We do not wish for our termination of the exclusive contract to cause harm to others.”

All obligations in contracts concluded before the termination point between Ador and others will be faithfully fulfilled.” NewJeans emphasized, “Our decision was reached after long contemplation.”

We can no longer remain with Ador, who is not fulfilling the basic duty of protecting the affiliated artist, and maintaining the exclusive contract will only cause us severe mental distress.”

Thus, we have reached the conclusion that we cannot help but leave Ador.” In conclusion, NewJeans stated, “We have been hurt and shocked by numerous media plays based on false information.”

After the termination of the exclusive contract, we hope these circumstances do not arise,” they added, “We will continue to do our best to deliver good music to you.”

Please watch over us and support us in the future.” Meanwhile, NewJeans held an emergency press conference the previous afternoon and announced the termination of the exclusive contract with Ador by midnight on the 29th.” In relation to this, Ador said, “It’s regrettable that an exclusive contract termination press conference was planned and held without sufficient review before receiving a reply to the certified letter,” and “As a party to the exclusive contract, Ador did not breach the contract and claims that trust was broken unilaterally does not constitute a reason for termination.” Parent company HYBE disclosed, “Our subsidiary, Ador, received a notice from NewJeans to terminate the exclusive contract as of midnight on November 29, 2024,” and “We will respond appropriately regarding this contract termination notification.” The following is the full official statement from NewJeans’ members. Hello, Minji, Hani, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein.”

The five of us will terminate the exclusive contract with Ador effective November 29, 2024, and will continue our activities freely away from HYBE and Ador. Ador has a duty to manage sincerely for our benefit as the agency signing an exclusive contract with us.”

We made our final request to Ador on November 13, 2024, to rectify their contractual breaches.”

Despite the lapse of the 14-day correction period, Ador refused to rectify, and none of the issues we requested were resolved. We have made several requests to Ador for correction over the past few months.”

However, Ador consistently evaded and made excuses.”

It’s clear that genuine communication of mutual respect was not realized due to Ador.

All five of us requested specific actions from Ador in our demand for correction.

However, Ador did not take any corrective actions beyond business hours, and it became physically impossible to rectify based on the remaining correction period.

Thus, we held an emergency press conference yesterday, making Ador’s claim not to have waited for a response mere wordplay. All five of us notify Ador of termination due to Ador’s breach of contractual duties and failure to rectify within the period.

This termination notice is in accordance with the exclusive contract, and all five of us signed the termination document ourselves.

The notification takes effect immediately upon its arrival to Ador on 2024.

11.

29.

Hence, from that point, the exclusive contract is void.

Therefore, there is no need to apply for an injunction to terminate the exclusive contract, and we are free to act from 2024.

11.

29. The five of us faithfully fulfilled our duties under the exclusive contract as artists affiliated with Ador.

The termination of the exclusive contract is solely due to the breach of duty by Ador, so we are not liable for any penalties. The five of us do not wish for our termination of the exclusive contract to cause harm to others.

All contractual obligations concluded before the termination point between Ador and others will be fulfilled sincerely. Our decision to terminate was reached after long contemplation.

We cannot stay with Ador any longer, who is not fulfilling the basic duty of protecting an affiliated artist, and maintaining the exclusive contract will only cause us severe mental distress.

Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that we cannot help but leave Ador.

Additionally, we have been subjected to numerous fabricated media plays, which have inflicted wounds and shocks upon us.

We hope that such situations do not arise following the termination of the exclusive contract. We, the five of us, will continue to do our best to deliver good music to you.

Thank you for watching over and supporting us. Jang Ju-yeon reporter jang3@edaily.co.kr
