Overview

  • Members Minji and Danielle attended the Aug. 14 court-ordered mediation at the Seoul Central District Court, but the session ended without agreement.
  • The court has scheduled a second mediation for September 11 as injunctions continue to bar NewJeans from pursuing independent music and endorsement deals.
  • ADOR’s lawsuit seeks confirmation that the group’s exclusive contracts with its five members are still valid, while NewJeans maintains that the removal of former CEO Min Hee-jin destroyed their trust.
  • Interim measures include a ban on solo activities and steep ₩1 billion fines for each alleged contract breach.
  • If the September mediation fails, the court will issue a final decision on contract enforceability on October 30.
