Danielle, who was notified of her exit from the girl group NewJeans, has been deleted from major social platforms.
On the 2nd, ADOR deleted group photos of existing members through its official social media platform in NewJeans and replaced them with group logo images and official light stick images.
On Spotify, the music platform, the names of both Daniel and former CEO Min Hee-jin were deleted from the NewJeans introduction section.
Prior to this, only Daniel was also found to have been deleted from the mobile rhythm game "Rhythm Hive" operated by Hive's game subsidiary Dream Age.

Earlier on December 29 last year, NewJeans's agency, ADOR, made an official statement and said it had confirmed Hani's return to ADOR following Haerin and Hyein. Minji said he was in talks about returning, but he said he notified Daniel of the termination of the exclusive contract.
In particular, the ADOR has filed a penalty and compensation complaint against Daniel, Daniel's family member, and former ADOR CEO Min Hee-jin for responsibility for leaving the NewJeans and delaying his return. The amount of claims for the lawsuit totaled 43.1 billion won.
Among them, Daniel recently opened an Instagram account and conducted live broadcasts. It proved its high popularity, with more than 900,000 followers within three days of opening the account.
In addition, there are observations that he may be starting his activities in China, not in Korea, by opening an account for "Xiao Hongshu," a Chinese SNS platform. With domestic activities restricted due to disputes with Odor, there is also a possibility that Xiao Hongshu will act as a new direct revenue window.
Daniel said, "There may be times when I'm anxious and afraid, but I'll try to find something good in it," adding, "Even a hard moment is not an 'impossible' but a 'moment that needs a little more time." "We will continue to move toward our dreams and continue to do things that will truly make us feel happy," he said.
