Group NewJeans Minji has topped the Star Ranking Star Idol Female Ranking at number one.

In the 238th Star Ranking Star Idol Female Ranking vote, held from 3:01 p.m. on the 14th to 3:00 p.m. on the 21st, NewJeans Minji secured the new number one spot with 20,046 votes.

Red Velvet Irene earned 14,244 votes to take second place, while NewJeans Hyein garnered 8,677 votes to claim third place. Girls' Generation Yuri (2,106 votes) and Girls' Generation Yoona (1,317 votes) followed.

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

However, Danielle was notified of the contract termination, while Minji is currently discussing whether to return. ADORE stated, "We are continuing internal discussions regarding future activities. Negotiations are progressing in a generally positive direction."

Meanwhile, Star Ranking is a ranking poll where fans directly vote for their favorite stars to determine the rankings. When voting via mobile, voters can receive a voting certificate, and various special benefits are provided to the stars based on the voting results and rankings.

Stars selected as number one for four consecutive weeks will be featured on outdoor digital billboards. Fans of stars who remain number one for four consecutive weeks can also request outdoor billboard video fan reports. Proposals should be sent to the StarNews official email (star@mtstarnews.com).
