Group NewJeans's Minji maintained the No. 1 spot on the Star Ranking Star Idol Female Chart.

In the 240th Star Ranking Star Idol Female Chart vote, held from 3:01 p.m. on May 28 to 3:00 p.m. on June 4, Minji secured first place with 18,702 votes. Minji has topped the chart for three consecutive weeks.

Red Velvet's Irene earned 14,454 votes to take second place, while NewJeans's Hyein garnered 9,273 votes to claim third place. Following them were Girls' Generation's Yuri (2,026 votes) and Girls' Generation's Yoona (1,183 votes).

Previously, NewJeans declared termination of their contract with ADOR in November 2024, citing ADOR's breach of obligations, among other reasons. However, in October last year, NewJeans lost the first-instance lawsuit seeking confirmation of 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. ADOR stated, "We are continuing internal discussions regarding future activities. Negotiations are proceeding 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 star depending on the voting result ranking.

Stars selected as No. 1 for four consecutive weeks will be featured on outdoor digital billboards. Fans of stars who rank No. 1 for four consecutive weeks can also request outdoor digital billboard video fan reports. Proposals should be sent to StarNews's official email (star@mtstarnews.com).

Starting with the June vote, results will be factored into the selection of the AAA 2026 Star Ranking award winners.
