Newzins, all five of us going to the door...The unexpected ending, not Min Hee Jin's



Group New Jin's has decided to return to its original agency, Adore, for the first time in a year. Those who have been in legal and emotional conflict since declaring their own line under former representative Min Hee-jin last year eventually entered a new phase by joining hands with Audor.

On the 12th, Adore decided to continue its activities with Adore after sufficient discussions with his family members""I respect the court's ruling and expressed my intention to comply with the exclusive contract ""

This evening, Minji, Hani, and Daniel also decided to return to the door after careful consultation"One member was staying in Antarctica, so the delivery was delayed, and there was no reply from Odor, so we were forced to notify it separately."




In response, Odor briefly commented, "'We are verifying the authenticity of the three members' intention to return.'" As a result, however, all five members of the Newzins resumed their activities with Adore, effectively confirming 'Complete Return'.

Newzins debuted under former CEO Min Hee-jin in 2022 and achieved global success by releasing hits such as 'Attention', 'Hype Boy', 'Ditto', and 'Super Shy'. However, in early 2024, the direction of the team became unclear due to the conflict of management rights between Hive and former CEO Min.

Hive conducted an audit claiming that former CEO Min attempted to take over management rights, and Min was dismissed. Since then, the members of Newzins have been at odds with Adore, demanding Min's return, and eventually held an emergency press conference in November last year and declared that they will leave the company.




However, the situation turned around when the court ruled in favor of Adore in a lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract. Newzins expressed its intention to appeal, but suddenly decided to return to the door a day before the deadline for appeal, officially making the break with Min Hee-jin's system.

Meanwhile, former CEO Min Hee-jin established a new entertainment agency OOK last month, heralding her own move. However, as Newzins returns to the door, changes are expected to be inevitable in former representative Min's new plan of '2 Newzins'.
