On December 16, NewJeans member Danielle shared a video on her new Instagram account, writing, "Happy Birthday, Daepyunim (CEO)."
The video featured Danielle singing a birthday song, which caught the attention of viewers. Min Hee Jin quickly liked the post.
This shows their close relationship after both parties left their former management company ADOR.
Previously, when NewJeans announced their withdrawal from ADOR with the desire to operate independently, Korean media said that they might return to CEO Min Hee Jin to develop the group together.
The relationship between Min Hee Jin and NewJeans is very strong. The female CEO is the one who supports, helps NewJeans shine and make an impression on the public.
NewJeans recently held a press conference in which they announced that their exclusive contract with ADOR has been terminated as of November 29. They also stated that the termination was due to ADOR's failure to fulfill its obligations to protect the artists, a breach of contract. Therefore, they are not responsible for any termination fees or compensation.
In response, ADOR also refuted NewJeans' views.
