In a show of loyalty and encouragement, NewJeans member Hanni has reached out to former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin, expressing her support during turbulent times. On September 27, Min Hee Jin took to her Instagram story to share heartfelt messages exchanged with Hanni, showcasing their close relationship.

In the exchange, Hanni wrote, “Wishing you good luck today, CEO! Though I’m sure you'll nail it as always.” This supportive message came just before Min's appearance at a highly anticipated event. The young idol also shared fan art featuring the phrase “NEWJEANS NEVER DIE!”—a declaration of unwavering support for her group and its legacy.

Min Hee Jin spoke at the '2024 Hyundai Card Da Vinci Motel' event in Itaewon, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, where she captivated the audience with a 100-minute talk titled “The Producer Who Breaks the Formula of K-Pop: Min Hee Jin’s Freestyle.” This event was particularly significant as fans eagerly awaited her insights, especially regarding her recent public disputes with HYBE, which have captured widespread media attention.

The controversies began to gain traction earlier this month when NewJeans members publicly advocated for Min Hee Jin’s reinstatement as CEO during a live broadcast on September 11. The situation intensified when, just days later, on September 25, HYBE announced their decision to hold an extraordinary general meeting. They confirmed that while Min Hee Jin would be reappointed as an inside director, she would not be reinstated as CEO, leaving fans and industry insiders questioning the dynamics between the companies.

Support continues to rally around Min Hee Jin from fans and artists alike, showcasing the profound impact she has had on the K-pop landscape as a visionary producer. The relationship between NewJeans and Min reflects the strong bonds formed within the K-pop industry, even in the face of adversity. As the drama unfolds, many are left wondering what the future holds for both Min Hee Jin and NewJeans in this ever-evolving entertainment world.
