The K-pop world has been rocked by allegations of harassment and mistreatment made by the managers of NewJeans against their former agency, ADOR. The claims, which surfaced following the group’s decision to terminate their exclusive contracts, have sparked significant concern among fans and industry insiders.
Allegations of Harassment and Intimidation
According to sources close to the situation, the harassment began when NewJeans decided to part ways with ADOR. Managers have accused the agency of tactics such as confiscating laptops without prior notice and conducting intense interrogations of staff members. These actions were reportedly aimed at intimidating employees who continued to support the group after their departure.
One manager, who requested anonymity, described the atmosphere as “unbearable,” revealing that staff members were frequently left in tears due to the severity of the bullying.
“It was painful to see the damage done not only to the members of NewJeans but also to those around them,” the manager said.
NewJeans’ Perspective and Public Reaction
The members of NewJeans have expressed their distress over the situation, stating that their decision to leave ADOR stemmed from the agency’s inability to protect both the group and its staff. These allegations have led to public outrage, with fans demanding a full investigation into ADOR’s management practices.
ADOR’s Response and Legal Action
In response to the allegations, ADOR has denied any claims of harassment or mistreatment, asserting that they have always acted in the best interests of their artists. The agency has also taken legal action, seeking clarification from the court regarding the status of its exclusive contracts with NewJeans.
Future of NewJeans
Despite the controversy, NewJeans remains committed to their fans and plans to continue their activities independently. The group has assured supporters that they will honor all previously scheduled commitments and continue producing music.
The K-pop industry and fans alike are closely watching these developments, hoping for a fair resolution that prioritizes the well-being of the artists and staff.
