ADOR, the agency behind NewJeans, has officially responded to the ultimatum issued by the group's members.

In a statement released on November 27th, ADOR said, "This statement is in response to the actions taken after the artist's formal notice," and emphasized that they hope Belift Lab will take Hanni's situation seriously and show mutual respect.

The agency added, "We have been careful to avoid unnecessary controversy over this matter, but despite our efforts, the issue remains unresolved. Now, we are sharing our stance." ADOR also pointed out that Belift Lab's version of events is "completely different" from Hanni’s account.

ADOR clarified the situation, explaining that Hanni clearly remembers a comment from a Belift Lab member on May 27th, telling her to "ignore it" or "just pass by."

The agency argued that it is unfair to ask Hanni to recall the entire situation in detail, especially since it was a brief moment.

The agency expressed full trust in Hanni’s words, stating, "We deeply regret the harm Hanni has experienced." ADOR urged Belift Lab to take her injury seriously and demonstrate respect, while avoiding further controversy regarding ADOR's artists.

Earlier, on November 13th, all members of NewJeans sent a formal notice to ADOR, demanding the return of former CEO Min Hee Jin, a thorough investigation into internal HYBE documents, and an apology from the manager who told Hanni to "ignore it."

The members also made it clear that if serious breaches of their contracts were not fixed, they would consider terminating their agreements.

The notice was received by ADOR on November 14th, with a response deadline set for November 28th.

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
