Dispatch Unleashes Shocking Details About ADOR Min Hee Jin’s HYBE Coup
In her interview, the CEO makes it very clear that she has never tried to steal HYBE’s equity in ADOR and rebuked claims accusing her of seeking foreign investments. The CEO also denied rumors that she tried to break off from HYBE.
I have never met with any investors to seize HYBE’s management rights (in ADOR). I have never tried to steal executive rights like HYBE claims. How can I do that with my 18% equity (in ADOR)? Because HYBE has 80% equity, it is impossible for me to seize the management rights. It is also impossible for ADOR to leave HYBE without their consent. It is hard to understand why HYBE is claiming the impossible.

Min Hee Jin then emphasized that the only reason HYBE is pushing for her resignation was because she had brought up issues with the company internally.
It is because I began bringing up internal issues since a month ago. Once I raised questions about the several issues that came to light after ILLIT copied NewJeans, I suddenly received notice that HYBE was trying to terminate me.

Min Hee Jin then lamented the timing of HYBE’s feud with her and their media play. The CEO continued rejecting all of HYBE’s claims and questioned the label’s intentions behind them.
I am surprised by HYBE for doing this during a very important time for NewJeans. All of this happened within four days of making a complaint. I also wonder if there has ever been a case that a company publishes articles during an audit before it has even yielded results? What was the reason they needed to put out these false articles that have nothing to do with what I was actually complaining about?
