NewJeans was 'erased', HYBE left behind a cover, Min Hee Jin managed to say 2 sentences?

Recently, social networks were abuzz with HYBE's Q4 2024 business plan. However, what shocked fans the most was that a major project of NewJeans did not appear in this plan as previously announced.

Specifically, former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin once announced that NewJeans would release a full album in the fourth quarter of this year. Even during NewJeans' Tokyo Done fan meeting in March, the group revealed that they were preparing a full album for the fourth quarter of 2024.

But according to HYBE's schedule, NewJeans' full album seems to have been canceled. This is even more certain when in a previous post, Min Hee Jin revealed that many of NewJeans' projects would be frozen due to the scandal with HYBE.

On September 26, JoongAng Ilbo published an exclusive interview with Min Hee Jin. When asked about NewJeans' career plans, Min Hee Jin presented a worrying picture. The former CEO of ADOR said that all the plans she had for the group were severely disrupted by this infighting. At this time, the group's next album was postponed, and the surprise fan meeting she was planning for Korean fans was also abruptly stopped.

"While preparing a surprise fan meeting for Korean fans, I was fired. The vice presidents were also abruptly dismissed and blocked from performing their duties. The production of the next album was stopped. All of this is really unfortunate. This is also part of HYBE's interference in NewJeans' activities," the former CEO said.

Recently, NewJeans is a group that has caused a stir in Korean public opinion when they openly sided with Min Hee Jin in the war with HYBE Group. The fact that they are not afraid to speak out against their parent group has made many people worry about the future of this young group.

Recently, in a group that specializes in discussing Kpop music, a post appeared questioning the plagiarism issue of NewJeans. Specifically, many people discovered that the beginning of the song Right Now - a music product released by NewJeans 3 months ago - has a strong similarity with the song HAGELLA NEE NODABEDA (OST of the movie PRITHVI, released in 2010).

Specifically, when comparing the two audio clips of these two songs, netizens all admitted that the tempo of Right Now is similar to HAGELLA NEE NODABEDA by about... 80%. If pointing out the difference between these two audio clips, netizens said that it is in terms of lyrics and Right Now by NewJeans is set to a slightly faster tempo than the Indian film soundtrack.

It is known that NewJeans' Right Now continues to be a product produced by Min Hee Jin's team. Previously, the group's song Bubble Gum was also embroiled in a controversy over plagiarism of the famous song Shakatak from before the 2000s.

So, with this controversy, it is not possible to conclude whether Right Now is another "child" that Min Hee Jin's team copied from other famous products or not, but netizens are constantly leaving comments criticizing the former CEO of ADOR.

On September 26, JoongAng Ilbo published an exclusive interview with Min Hee Jin, in which she detailed the current situation of the discord with HYBE. She revealed secret stories in the noise, including being unfairly fired by ADOR and HYBE even offering to pay her to leave.

The news has angered netizens, further tarnishing HYBE’s public image. What makes them even angrier is that posts about the issue appear to have been blocked on websites shortly after the online community posts began to circulate.
