It’s unclear what lies ahead for quintet as they arrive at an impasse with record label Ador
NewJeans ended their Hong Kong performance in tears and announced a hiatus after a Seoul court ruled against their request to establish themselves as an independent management agency, siding with their record label Ador. This follows a feud stemming from the ouster of their former creative director and accusations against Ador. The group performed individually under the name NJZ instead of NewJeans, and cited the emotional toll of the legal battle as the reason for their hiatus, a decision Ador regrets.
