New Jeans' Danielle Faces Lawsuit After ADOR Terminates Contract, Penalty Estimated At 100 Billion South Korean Won
New Jeans' Danielle is facing a lawsuit from ADOR following her contract termination, with potential penalties reaching 100 billion KRW.Summary
ADOR has terminated Danielle's contract with New Jeans and is pursuing legal action, seeking penalties and damages estimated at approximately 100 billion KRW (around $69.2 million USD). This escalation stems from an ongoing dispute involving ADOR, its artists, and former CEO Min Hee-Jin. ADOR alleges external interference contributed to the conflict and Danielle’s departure, and intends to hold Danielle, a family member, and Min Hee-Jin accountable. Legal experts suggest the penalty is based on ADOR’s revenue and the remaining contract duration, potentially reaching 108 billion KRW per member, separate from any damages sought. While Haerin, Hyein, and Hanni have agreed to return to ADOR, Minji is still in discussions, and Danielle now faces a separate legal battle that could significantly impact her career and finances.
