NewJeans Debuts Exciting "NJZ" Activity Amidst Legal Battle
In a recent turn of events, NewJeans has introduced an exhilarating new venture dubbed "NJZ," sparking a wave of curiosity among fans worldwide. The renowned agency behind the group, ADOR, has swiftly responded with a statement addressing the unfolding situation.
On the 7th of February, ADOR officially communicated their stance to TV Report, declaring, "We are keen to clarify ADOR's standpoint regarding the unveiling of NewJeans' fresh title."
Earlier that same day, NewJeans took the spotlight with the announcement of their rebranded identity, "NJZ," hinting at a revitalized chapter in their journey. In a poignant response, ADOR expressed disappointment, citing, "It is regrettable that the group made this decision unilaterally, preceding a legal verdict on the authenticity of their exclusive agreements with ADOR."
Firm in their resolve to safeguard NewJeans' esteemed brand reputation, ADOR reiterated, "We wish to underscore our unwavering willingness to engage with the members of NewJeans or their legal representatives to resolve any misconceptions and explore forthcoming endeavors."
The feud between NewJeans and ADOR over their exclusive contracts has been brewing for over a year. NewJeans contends that the contracts were terminated due to breaches by ADOR. During a press briefing outlining the contract termination, NewJeans members asserted that ADOR had a duty to manage the group with integrity for their benefit. Despite a 14-day grace period for corrections, ADOR allegedly failed to address the issues, leading to a standoff.
On the other hand, ADOR maintains the validity of the exclusive contracts with NewJeans. The agency initiated legal proceedings in December of the previous year, filing a lawsuit at the Seoul Central District Court to validate the contracts. In addition, an injunction was lodged to prevent members from engaging in agreements with other agencies or promotional activities. The legal clash is slated to commence in earnest in the following month.
Amidst the legal turbulence, NewJeans, now reborn as NJZ, is slated to grace the stage at 'ComplexCon Hong Kong' in the upcoming month. Member Hanni teased a potential new song release in a recent interview with CNN, signaling exciting times ahead for the group and their loyal fan base.
Stay tuned for what surprises await from the reinvigorated NJZ! 🌟 #NewJeans #NJZ #MusicNews
