DANIELLE
Former member of the group NEWJEANS, DANIELLE, gave some news.
On July 22, DANIELLE published a photo on her Instagram account accompanied by the message: “Sometimes, life becomes blurry, but the light always finds its way back. Until then, you too keep shining. With all my gratitude, always”.
The unveiled photo shows DANIELLE looking at the camera with a blue sky and a lake in the background. She completed a casual style by combining a blue-collared zip-up sweater and a cap.
Earlier in the day, on the occasion of the 4th anniversary of NEWJEANS‘s debut, full-group content with 4 members including MINJI was published, creating a buzz. This is the first time in 1 year and 4 months that NEWJEANS presents full-group content.
Following the dismissal of ADOR‘s former representative director, MIN HEE JIN, NEWJEANS entered into a dispute with its agency ADOR before declaring the termination of its exclusive contract at a press conference in November 2024. However, with the court ruling in favor of the agency ADOR, their activities found themselves restricted.
Subsequently, in November of last year, members HAERIN and HYEIN rejoined the agency, followed a month later, in December, by HANNI. ADOR indicated being “in positive discussion” regarding MINJI, while DANIELLE was expelled.
ADOR estimated that DANIELLE had caused the dispute regarding NEWJEANS‘s exclusive contract and that she bore major responsibility in the departure of the members and the delay of their comeback, thus notifying her of the termination of her exclusive contract. Currently, ADOR is pursuing legal proceedings claiming 33.1 billion won in damages against DANIELLE, her family, and former director MIN HEE JIN.
