Girl group New Jeans announced on the 28th that it will terminate its exclusive contract with its agency, Adore, from midnight on the 29th.
As a result, it is unclear whether the team name "Newzins" will be available in the future.
"The five of us may not be able to use the name Newzins for the time being regardless of our will," Hye-in said. "Still, the essence of our Newzins will not change, and we have no intention of giving up the name Newzins."
"I'll fight for the name New Jeans," Daniel said, adding, "No matter what the name is, New Jeans Never Die."
After the news conference, Odor issued a statement saying the exclusive contract was still in effect.
"We regret that we planned and conducted an exclusive contract termination press conference without sufficient review even before we received a reply to the proof of content," Adore said, refuting that "Adore, a party to the exclusive contract, did not violate the contract and that unilaterally claiming that trust was broken is not a reason for termination."
"The exclusive agreement signed between Dorr and the members of Newgene's remains in effect," Ador said, adding, "So we hope that the future schedule will also be with Ador as it has been."
