In the latest K-pop industry showdown, NewJeans' CEO Min Hee-jin is at the center of a heated dispute with HYBE over the control of ADOR, a company owned predominantly by HYBE. With Min Hee-jin holding 18 percent of ADOR's shares, tensions escalated when HYBE initiated an audit and requested her resignation as ADOR's CEO. The conflict intensified as Min Hee-jin accused HYBE of using the audit as a ploy to take over ADOR, leading to a public spat between the two factions.

In a bold move, Min Hee-jin claimed that HYBE's actions were fueled by a fear of NewJeans' success, alleging that ADOR's concepts were being copied by the entertainment giant. The feud reached a peak when Min Hee-jin slammed HYBE's girl group ILLIT as a 'NewJeans copycat,' further igniting the controversy. As the power struggle unfolded, HYBE's audit uncovered multiple exit plans within ADOR, adding fuel to the already fiery dispute.

Interestingly, despite the clash, ADOR remains a significant player in the K-pop scene, with Min Hee-jin's outspoken nature garnering attention from fans and industry insiders alike. The ongoing battle between Min Hee-jin and HYBE has captivated K-pop enthusiasts, sparking debates over corporate power dynamics in the entertainment industry.
