Sure everyone have different views when it comes to looks, I just saying what my opinion is, at that is that besides NingNing they are not that "wow" compared to some of the other groups.
One of my first favorite groups with their song "Breathe". Sadly the group never really took off after the first two years when they had a couple of good songs, not sure whyJYP did not do more with the group. But I guess it's because Suzy maybe got bigger than the group. Well, we got Suzy from it at least, that's something.
aespa truly is a gg made of the best best visual ever
I don't really think so, yes NingNing is maybe the hottest girl in kpop right now, the rest of the members are good looking yes, but if we talk "kpop standard" they are not that special compared to groups like BP, BM and NJ to pick some groups.
As other have said, it's a bit of timing. When Blackpink debuted 2NE1 was over and out of the picture. Babymonster still have BP "active" and hovering in the background so youdon't have the same natural transaction of fans from 2NE1 to BP with BP to BM. So you have both the fans and YGE split between the two groups. BP also debuted when the 2nd generations was more or less gone or the groups was not so active anymore. BM have groups like NJ (or had), Aespa, etc. that are active and popular to go up agianst. So it's more competion and in general a harder enviroment for BM.
But it's also easier to get know a 4 member group than a +6 member group, both 2NE1 and BP was easy to learn who is who and their names. I stil can't point out one member in BM and tell her name in a group photo, well, maybe sometimes I can guess, but in general not. It took me a long time to learn who was who in favorite groups like T-ara also. That makes it a bit harder to get a connection to a group when you don't feel you knew the members.
Still, I like the style of music BM have had this far, all songs are not good, but if they do more songs like "Forever" I'm happy. But my fear is that they instead will do more songs like the late BP and "Sheesh" and they will only be a group of wasted potential doing boring songs.
If she she not get somekind of super hit she will just fade away, it have been active too long to suddenly get more popular. I never knew who she was from the start, even if I knew she was some kind of star from one of the produce shows. But she have had a couple of good songs that I like so I kind of like her. But she will not suddenly get more popular again.
I suppose... but would Hybe want to spens more money creating another label? In addition, it would be in Hybe HQ. They arent going to fork out for a building just for ONE label (I find the odea that all the labels being in one building extremely stupid, due to how Hybe is strucfured).
Well I can think of worse problems than sharing a building with Hybe?..... I mean are not NJ suppose to be young adult that can act profensional ?
I'm proud to announce that it's been literal weeks since I've read anything patrik with a k has posted in this thread. The moment I see his name, my fingers get to scrolling
Hey the truth hurt I know, better to pretend it does not exist.
There would be no point in that, as that would be nearly replicating Ador, in terms of ownership. The composition you've stated is the exact same as Ador, or as close to. It would be simpler for Ador to let the girls buy into the label, and change the management structure.
As I said, they could let the girls get more influence over the company, that is, they could call the company "their company" and being involved in the running of the company if they so like. That is not the case with Ador where MHJ was the one running the show. But yes, they could use Ador and just let the girls get a share of the company, it's the same thing but it would be easier for the girls to "save face" if it is a new company, because the girls would not have to admit they went back to Ador after all....
well, let say NJ work in a company where they have more freedom to decide their music concepts etc. with little involvment fromHybe but the Hybe still owns the rights to the group and get at least half the profit from the groups acctivits. "work together" does not neccessary mean that NJ needs to work day and night together with Hybe.
No. Acctually the new name, NJZ sucks in marketing value compared to NewJeans. I mean even NJ fans most agree on that NewJeans sounds much cooler and more easly catch the attention better than NJZ.
If you were any knowledgeable in law, you would find him nothing but a hot air balloon.
Hybe would invest even more onto the traitor who might betray again any day. Hmmph. If anything, HYBE would put them under heaviest debt or on shortest leash.
I did not mean they would invest more, they have done the investment in the group allreday inform of training the group etc. And it not that hard to write a new contract that would put heavy penalties on NJ if they don't behave. Both parties are intrestied in getting back on track. Hybe wants to earn money and move away from the problems, becaus it's not really good PR for them to have this dragning on. Same with NJ, they want to move on, doing music, pererfome and earn money. So both have an intrest to make a deal/settlement to work together even if it means both must comprimise a bit.
I would say it's because they just have stronger voices and physics overall that are needed to be heard in a live sitaution. You need a strong voice if you want to be heard in a open space. Sitting in a study and singing is a bit different.
They're 16-20 year old young women being sued by a conglomerate with their lives on the line and being subjected to more hate and harassment than anyone in their situation deserves. There's no outcome to this that's sensitive to their well-being
I just can't see Hybe being willing to settle with them if NJZ lose the appeal, at least not one that wouldn't force them back into Ador for a shorter period
It's not impossible they make a deal that alllows NewJeans to form a new company that is co-own with Hybe, let's say 50/50 or 60 % Hybe and 40 % by the girls. That way both can kind of save face, NJ can claim thay are not going back to Ador and Hybe can still earn money from their investments.
Law Office YouTube channel gains popularity for their rational coverage of ADOR-NewJeans dispute
YouTube channel Kang & Park Law Office is gaining attention and high viewership for its rational analysis of the conflict between ADOR and NewJeans.
The channel features Kang Ho Seok and Park Gun Ho, twoveteranlawyers with 15 years of experience, currently partners at Jeong Hyang Law Firm. Although the channel has been around for just over a year, it has recently gone viral for a video discussing the court’s ruling in the NewJeans case.
In their latest video, the two lawyers analyzed the court's decision fromMarch 21 to grant ADOR’s request for an injunction against the five members of NewJeans, prohibiting them from engaging in certain activities such as signing advertising contracts and suspending the group's independent activities.
They explained, “It’s important to understand the weight of this injunction. It's an extremely powerful measure. Injunctions are rarely granted because they prevent artists from doing anything until the lawsuit concludes, which is considered a harsh outcome. But in this case, the court must have found that ADOR didn’t commit any significant fault justifying contract termination. That’s likely why the decision was made.” They addressed NewJeans directly, saying, “Go back. There’s no legal way for you to win this.”

They also noted, “Do you remember Min Hee Jin’s first injunction case? The same judges who handled that high-profile case also ruled on ADOR’s injunction this time. These judges are more familiar with the details of this dispute than anyone else. So this decision carries a lot of weight. It’s not your average injunction.”
They continued, “This is a massive industry involving hundreds of billions of KRW. Everything operates based on strict contractual relationships, and you can’t take it lightly. The fact that an injunction like this was issued before even proceeding to the main lawsuit almost makes the outcome certain. The court essentially ruled that what the NewJeans members claimed does not amount to contract termination. Contract periods must be honored. The company invested heavily during that time. If success had come without any investment, there might be a slight justification. But saying ‘now that we’re successful, we want to work with someone else’ makes no legal sense.”
They added, “It’s time for the members and former CEO Min Hee Jin to part ways. We believe the court is giving the NewJeans members a chance to take a step back, seek legal advice, and realize that their legal interests are fundamentally different from Min Hee Jin’s.”
The video has surpassed 110,000 views and resonated with many viewers, drawing reactions like “So refreshing” and “They really get to the point.”
Additionally, another recently uploaded video reached over 60,000 views in just four days.

In that video, titled "NewJeans → NJZ → mhdhh(?) Rumors of Division Between Parents, Fandom Split, Injunction Appeal Rejected… Is Recovery Possible?", the lawyers said, “We told you a split was inevitable. The image is being damaged, the lawsuit continues, financial losses are piling up, and everyone’s personal lives are spiraling. No matter how young they are, at least some of the members or their parents must be starting to think, ‘Something’s not right.’ We’re watching them rush toward a cliff in the wrong direction.”
They also criticized the NewJeans members for hiring the same law firm as former CEO Min Hee Jin. They concluded, “That was a mistake. Lawyers are supposed to provide advice with different perspectives and assess the risk of losing. But if they're using the same law firm and even the same lawyers, how can the members and Min Hee Jin receive separate, individualized advice? That’s likely one of the fundamental reasons they’re headed in the wrong direction."

They pretty much say what I have said all the time, it makes no sence at all to belive that NJ will win or to have the opinion that they should win.
