Even amid the conflict with HYBE, which started with HYBE’s illegal audit in April, which has continued for over seven months, I have done everything in my power to keep the shareholder agreement and bring ADOR back to its original state.
However, HYBE has not admitted to its wrongdoings and has shown no effort to change, so I have decided that further efforts would be a waste of time.”
