The full verdict from HYBE and Min Hee Jin‘s trial is sparking strong reactions.
On June 3, the full-length verdict from Min Hee Jin’s court battle against HYBE was released.
In the 20-page long verdict, the Seoul Central District Court makes it crystal clear that HYBE was in the wrong. In the verdict, the judge shoots down all of HYBE’s allegations against Min Hee Jin.
A lawyer reacted to the verdict by stating that HYBE must have been shocked by how badly they were beaten in court.
This verdict overwhelmingly rules against HYBE. To be honest, that is why Min Hee Jin stated that none of HYBE’s claims were accepted in court. She said that none of HYBE’s reasons to fire her were accepted in the courts, and she is basically right. In fact, the court rarely writes a verdict this unfavorable. For example, the language in the verdict is very explicit and clear, which usually isn’t the case. I think HYBE may have been shocked by this.

Netizens also reacted to the verdict, with many also expressing shock at the fact that virtually none of HYBE’s claims were accepted in court.
- “Why did HYBE sue her? LOL. This looks as bad as a shocking divorce trial.”
- “It’s shocking that HYBE tried to kill the CEO and group in the media.”
- “Seriously, why did they sue Min Hee Jin?”
- “Not accepted, not accepted, not accepted, no evidence, LOL.”
- “At this point, did HYBE sue for the sake of it? Or did someone force them to?”
- “I can’t believe they did all that media play despite not having anything.”
- “Despite getting beaten this badly, they still haven’t gotten their act together. Those old men should just go out and die.”
- “If you’re going to lose this bad, why did you sue? LOL. F*cking hilarious.”
