HYBE’s Park Jiwon Sends Internal Email Telling Employees Not To Worry And Resume Work

Most recently, the court ruled favor of ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin’s injunction against HYBE. This stops HYBE from forcing ADOR to hold a shareholder’s meeting, which HYBE could use to force Min Hee Jin out. With this ruling, Min is expected to stay at ADOR.

Following news of the injunction, HYBE’s Park Jiwon sent an internal email to executives regarding the decision.

To HYBE members:

You have probably already heard the news through the press, but the decision was made to ban shareholders from exercising their voting rights regarding ADOR’s CEO’s dismissal. Our company will follow the court’s orders.

— Park Jiwon

Previously, Park sent an internal email to executives two days after the HYBE audit began on the 23rd of last month and explained the reason for the audit.

However, regarding this decision, the court stated, ‘Min Hee Jin clearly weakened HYBE’s control over ADOR by stepping out of HYBE’s boundaries with NewJeans and pressuring HYBE to sell ADOR’s shares.’ As this has been clearly stated, we plan to follow the necessary procedures within the law.

— Park Jiwon

He also promised to make sure that the hard work of the company will not go down in vain.

We will carry out the best measures we can so that the hard work of our employees who have trusted the company will not be in vain. We ask everyone to continue working unwaveringly and not worry. We will do our best so that the value of our IP and the achievements of our members are not damaged.

— Park Jiwon

Netizens criticized Park for sending out an email about hard work when he was the one that wasn’t doing his work properly.

• “You don’t even have any achievements yourself.”
• “What do you mean ‘unwavering’, you’re the one that’s shaking things up.”
• “Things are going to be bad if you do your best.”
• “‘We will do our best so that the value of our IP and the achievements of our members are not damaged.’-> This is just hilarious.”
• “Jiwon, you’re the biggest problem here.”
• “Just worry about yourself and do your work.”
• “Just get rid of Park Jiwon.”

• “Shouldn’t they be saving this email as evidence?”
• “Just do your job.”
• “Just get out ahjusshi and don’t make us mad.”
• “F*ck off ahjusshi.”
• “Wow sending an email with that kinds of content…you really are an expert at using politics…using all these fancy words as a base..who is the one with bad intentions trying to bring down one person…this is too much.”
• “Says the one who ruined the company….you’re all talk.”
• “Ha, just leave.”

Meanwhile, Min Hee Jin is planning on holding a second press conference on May 31.
