Previously, NewJeans declared contract termination in November 2024, citing ADOR's breach of contract obligations and other reasons. However, in October last year, NewJeans lost the first-instance lawsuit regarding the validity of their exclusive contract, after which members Hyein, Haerin, and Hanni returned to ADOR.

However, Danielle was notified of the contract termination, and Minji is currently discussing her return. On this day, ADOR stated, "We are continuing internal discussions regarding future activities. Negotiations are proceeding in a generally positive direction."
