• HYBE Employees on Blind Continue to Criticize Min Hee Jin for ‘Draining’ Resources

    HYBE employees continue to express their dissatisfaction towards Min Hee Jin, CEO of ADOR, on the anonymous online forum Blind.

    Min Hee Jin is currently facing a forced resignation for allegedly plotting to seize management rights of the subsidiary.

    Blind is an online forum exclusively open to verified employees of registered companies, meaning all users are confirmed employees of HYBE.

    In light of the recent developments in the ongoing dispute, more Blind users are posting complaints directed at Min Hee Jin.

    Many believe that the success of the girl group NewJeans was not possible without HYBE’s support and resources, contrary to Min Hee Jin’s claims.

    One user stated,

    "She claimed she could have done it without HYBE’s capital. She said she feels like she gave birth to the artists herself. But let’s ask her this.

    Where were the NewJeans members originally trained?

    Where was the ‘Min Hee Jin girl group’ originally supposed to debut?

    On what YouTube channel were MVs like ‘Hype Boy’, ‘Attention’, and all of NewJeans’ debut songs promoted?

    Who oversaw NewJeans’ global streaming campaigns on Spotify, YouTube, etc?

    Who developed the Phoning app?

    Who plans and hosts NewJeans’ fan meetings?

    Who helped NewJeans score a spot on the Lallapalooza lineup, exclusive coverage through Billboard, a spot as a performer and an award at the BBMAs?

    Who oversaw the work related to NewJeans’ brand endorsements, brand partnerships, and sponsorships?

    Who negotiates NewJeans’ appearances on Korean, Japanese, and American award ceremonies?

    Who is in charge of NewJeans’ press relations? And about 50 other questions. All of this was done by HYBE employees, not ADOR." Other Blind users added comments like,

    “Even then, she told the members to never mention HYBE in any of their acceptance speeches, never talk about any other HYBE Labels artists, and she blocked all questions related to the members’ experiences as trainees because they spent that time under Source Music.

    She despised HYBE so much but when she was asked to design the layout of the HYBE building, she requested that she get the top floor, the 16th floor, to herself, how disgraceful can she be, and why does she love carrying around that HYBE shopping bag so much?”

    “What did the HYBE employees do to deserve this?;; Harsh language, power tripping, attitude issues all unbefitting of her outer appearance, and ordering us to give them back finished results based on a timeline that they decided without any explanation on our end. They always kept information that we needed to carry out our tasks secret and called it for ‘security reasons’.

    That information that even external parties like Dolphiners Films has access to, HYBE employees are not allowed to have. Then don’t ask us to do the work! All the employees at that label are little Min Hee Jin's too. They’re crazy good at power tripping.”

    “This is so right. Every time they needed the business division or administrative division, they drained all our resources and now they turn around and say they got no help? Thinking about Phoning again just shot up my blood pressure.”

  • BTS Jin says he was nervous filming with Shin Se Kyung but their chemistry in the MV tells a different story

    BTS member Jin is finally back, and fans can’t stop talking about his new music video.

    On May 16, Jin dropped his second mini album Echo, and the title track “Don’t Say You Love Me” is already making waves — especially because of the emotional scenes with actress Shin Se Kyung.

    The MV is shot like a drama, showing powerful yet soft acting between Jin and Shin Se Kyung. Their natural eye contact, emotional scenes, and quiet chemistry have left fans saying, “Are they a real couple?” and “Please cast them in a real drama next time!”

    But while their chemistry looked perfect on screen, Jin revealed that he was actually super nervous behind the scenes.

    In a recent interview, Jin shared, “It was my first time acting with a professional actress, so I was really awkward and clumsy. I was so nervous that things didn’t go as I imagined.”

    Still, he praised Shin Se Kyung for helping him through the scenes. “I was very thankful to Shin Se Kyung for her passionate acting. If you look closely, you might catch me looking awkward,” he said, laughing.

    Jin also shared a funny moment during filming: “There was one scene in a parking lot, and the wind was blowing like crazy. My hair kept flying everywhere, and I couldn’t act properly. We ended up changing my hairstyle to finish filming.”

    His new album Echo tells honest stories about love, friendship, choices, and emotions we feel in everyday life. Fans are touched by how personal and heartfelt Jin’s songs and acting are in this comeback.
