The Biggest Misunderstanding About NewJeans Vs. LE SSERAFIM Debut Party Photo Circulating Online

They’ve tried many times to have posts taken down about this.

This article is part of our coverage of HYBE vs. ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin. You can read more and view the entire timeline here.

On April 25, 2024, ADOR’s Min Hee Jin held a press conference to share her side of the story regarding the feud with HYBE. During the conference, she claimed that HYBE told her they would debut a girl group, now LE SSERAFIM, thus delaying NewJeans’ debut.

With this, she expressed that she felt “betrayed” that LE SSERAFIM debuted first.

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.

With the ongoing feud, a particular photo began circulating in many online community boards, claiming that NewJeans was treated unfairly.

However, the OP posted to clear up confusion, revealing that LE SSERAFIM’s photo was of SOURCE MUSIC employees gathering to congratulate them on their debut. In contrast, NewJeans’ photo had only the members as they were being filmed for original content.
