During the press conference, Min Hee Jin referred to fellow HYBE group LE SSERAFIM, who debuted a few months before NewJeans.
During the press conference, Min Hee Jin expressed that she felt “betrayed” when LE SSERAFIM debuted because she believed NewJeans was going to be first. She even brought the reaction of the members’ parents into the press conference.
NewJeans members came to HYBE with only the thought of debuting as HYBE’s first girl group. They felt betrayed when LE SSERAFIM debuted first. The members’ parents were also angered by this.

While the reporters spoke about Min Hee Jin allegedly leaking contracts to investors, her response seemed to dance around the issue and focused largely on NewJeans instead.
In her response, she explained that she thought there was a hidden intention behind what was happening as she saw everything she did as a protest to “protect NewJeans’ achievements.
How can a legitimate protest to protect NewJeans’ achievements be an act of usurping ADOR’s management rights? There seems to be some hidden intention that I cannot understand here.
