Maru Entertainment issued a statement on the 2nd that Norazo is currently preparing for their comeback which is targeted by the mid of September. This new digital single will be released after 5 months since 'Vegetables' was released in April this year.  Norazo, who prayed for the health of all the people in their previous work, is already interested in what kind of ingenious concept they will show the public.

Norazo , who debuted in 2005, received a lot of affection with the hit song 'Superman' released in 2008 and established themselves as a unique character in the music industry. In particular, through 'Cider', which was released in 2018, they performed several activities through receiving music broadcasts as well as several entertainment programs and advertisements. Since then, Norazo's unique genre was established with the songs 'Shower', 'Bread', and 'Vegetables' one after another.

Meanwhile, fans' attention is focused on the news of Norazo 's comeback, which always showcases positive energy with music that is satisfying to the eyes and ears, the exact comeback date and their concept is still unknown which raises curiosity among fans.

On the other hand, Norazo is inciting for the final new song work and their goal in making a comeback by mid-September.

NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
