Netizens are rooting for ADOR’s CEO.

On April 25, KST, ADOR’s CEO Min Hee Jin held an emergency press conference to address the ongoing feud between her and her label’s parent company, HYBE. She addressed the control of NewJeans, accusations of plagiarism, and more.

She emphasized that she never claimed to try to “usurp” management rights.

My angle and HYBE’s angle are different. Their claim that I tried to usurp management rights is matador (black propaganda). I have never tried to usurp the rights of ADOR. I am a salary-paid CEO.

— Min Hee Jin

She called out HYBE, stating how could she usurp rights when they owned 80% of ADOR shares, and wondered what their true intention was in selling her out. Amid all the outpour of news regarding the press conference and feud, one X user’s post online went viral for its simple and short summary of the whole situation.

HYBE thought they were ‘drowning’ (taking down) someone, but this crazy woman didn’t drown.

K-Netizens had nothing but praise and hoped that Min would continue to fight back.

Witches usually don’t drown, they float.

She is so cool. I know the situation is hard but I hope she stays strong. I like her strong spirit. She’s different than me, who only thinks of quitting when their superior is being annoying.

They tried to ‘drown’ her but she was actually a mermaid who’s f*cking good at swimming.

 I need to live like her. I don’t mean that in a bad way or a good way. I just mean that if you live headstrong like her, at least you won’t get taken down.

Netizens also agreed that sometimes you have to go a bit crazy to fight back.

• “Min Hee Jin don’t fail!”
• “Hwaiting to the crazy lady!”
• “Min Hee Jin make it out alive!”
• “Min Hee Jin please win!”
• “I think I should live like a crazy woman from now on. I want to be able to voice my opinions and not stay quiet.”
• “Same here!”
